WP4 - Technical Integration
Activity type:
RTD
Lead partner:
Work package leader:
Objectives:
- Implement shared standards from WorkPackage 3 to allow for integration across the BioMedBridges project
- Expose the integration via use of REST based WebServices interfaces optimised for browsing information
- Expose the integration via use of REST based WebServices interfaces optimised for programmatic access
- Expose appropriate meta-data information via use of Semantic Web Technologies
- Pilot the use of semantic web technologies in high-data scale biological environments
Description:
The WP will provide a layered, distributed integration of BioMedBridges data using latest technologies. A key aspect to this integration will be the internal use of standards, developed in WP3, which will provide the points of integration between the different data sources.
- The use of common sample ontologies (from WP3) will provide integration between biological sample properties, such as cell types, tissues and disease status, in particular bridging the Euro-BioImaging, BBMRI, ELIXIR and INFRAFRONTIER projects.
- The use of phenotype-based ontologies will provide individual and animal level characterisation which, when these can be associated with genetic variation, will provide common genotype to phenotype links. This in turn will provide a bridge between ECRIN, EATRIS, INSTRUCT, BBMRI, INFRAFRONTIER and ELIXIR projects.
- The use of environmental sample descriptions and geolocation tags will bridge between EMBRC, ECRIN, ERINHA, EATRIS and ELIXIR.
- The use of chemical ontologies will help bridge between EU-OPENSCREEN, ECRIN, Euro-BioImaging, INSTRUCT and ELIXIR.
By applying these standards in the member databases (themselves often internally federated), WP4 will create a data landscape that theoretically can be traversed, data-mined and exploited.
