Dear AgBioData,

A few years ago, after a review in the AgBioData community (at large, not only the ontology/metadata WG) we had produced a list of ontologies actively used by our databases.

To my memory, except maybe CheBI we had them all in AgroPortal. So we created a « group » in AgroPortal for AgBioData. These ontologies can be visualized in AgroPortal here by filtering by group: http://agroportal.lirmm.fr/ontologies http://agroportal.lirmm.fr/ontologies

We also setup a slice (i.e., a subset of the whole AgroPortal where all the UI and services are « restricted » to the AGBIODATA group): http://agbiodata.agroportal.lirmm.fr/ontologies http://agbiodata.agroportal.lirmm.fr/ontologies

The meeting last week remind me that we should refresh/complete this list (looking at other ontologies available in AgroPortal or in other resources (BioPortal, OLS, ...).

Also, at the same time I registered the « projects » using the ontologies… here : http://agroportal.lirmm.fr/projects http://agroportal.lirmm.fr/projects

This page looks a bit « unattractive » (the UI will be refactored soon) but in fact this is the only place where the relation between a project and and ontology is formally (and machine actionably) represented e.g., http://data.agroportal.lirmm.fr/ontologies/PO/projects http://data.agroportal.lirmm.fr/ontologies/PO/projects (Add ?&apikey=528c4e4a-5c3e-4798-a2e2-11d96761b8ce at the end of the call in your Browser)

This information allow us, for instance, to show « ontology in used » in the landscape page:

So if you an take a minute to reply to this email with ONE sentence :

I am XX, my database or project, YY, (still) uses ontologies/semantic resources ZZ, RR, TT, etc.

I will then compile the data in AgroPortal.

Bye Thanks Clement
