CatchIS, or Catchment Information System is one of the offerings of the National Soil Resources Institute (NSRI) at Cranfield University, UK. NSRI is the largest UK national and international centre for research and development, consultancy and training in soils and their interaction with the atmosphere, land use, geology and water resources. NSRI is a well-established centre within the Cranfield Natural Resources Department in the School of Applied Science, leading Cranfield's research on soil. The CatchIS project seeks to draw upon this collective wealth of unique environmental information to develop applied risk assessments for pesticide fate and behaviour studies as well as other threats expressed at the catchment scale.

The CatchIS website was recently redeveloped by the CatchIS team and now uses the excellent MultiFlex-2 web template designed by G. Wolfgang.
