Planteome Ontology WG Zoom Meeting:

Date: Wednesday Dec. 16th, 2015 Time: 8:15am PST (GMT-8)

Planning for PAG Workshop with CG Collaborators Monday Jan 11th

  • PAG workshop (Monday Jan 11th 5:30- 7:30pm)

- don't need to buy the AV equipment, will be provided - need a name- "Planteome collaborators workshop, PAG 2016" (It's not all curators coming, so it's not a "curator workshop") - will be a "working dinner", dinner being figured out

 - need to finalize list of invited participants
   - few people have not confirmed
   - There is a breeding API meeting scheduled at the same time, but it might be moving.
   - want to get the agenda out before xmas, so that people who confirmed early will get a quick reminder.
  • Agenda: 5:30-7:30
   - 28 people confirmed (allowances for ~10 more)
     - invite the plant phenotype project people (PPPP group) and the AgBioData group
   - see google doc for more precise 
 - Dinner:  no tables, so what time to do dinner?
   - 7- so that discussion can follow.
     - set up dinner around 6:30
  • APIs- still in a state of flux, but should be presentable by PAG
 - Summary descriptions on how to access them from planteome.org
  • Look to get others involved in the enrichment of the TO and other reference ontologies. Crowd sourcing some ideas about how to incorporate ontologies into normal plant science workflows.
 - external involvement is key
  • Add an outreach page, with links to community involvement tools (TermGenie)
   - also with links to meetings and workshops
   - and links to STEM stuff

Updates on the data annotations: rice and cassava

mapping of TO terms to trait dictionaries for lentil, soybean, cassava, rice==
