OBA development- Chris Mungall

• CM: If there is time I would like to walk through the procedure we use to develop OBA.

• Part of this was covered in the tutorial on template-based ontology development, but we had to rush this part due to lack of time:

• For OBA, the source of the ontology is primarily in TSVs, found here:

https://github.com/obophenotype/bio-attribute-ontology/tree/master/src/ontology/modules

• The design patterns are specified here:

https://github.com/obophenotype/bio-attribute-ontology/tree/master/src/ontology/patterns

• Together these are used to build the ontology with equivalence axioms, with the entire ontology hierarchy being inferred automatically, e.g:
