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

  • Day and Time: Monday Jan 11th 5:30- 7:30pm
    • 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
    • don't need to buy the AV equipment, will be provided
  • Need to finalize list of invited participants
  • 28 people confirmed (allowances for ~10 more)
    • few people have not confirmed
    • Send invites to other groups- DivSeek, plant phenotype project project (PPPP group) and the AgBioData group (LC)
    • There is a breeding API meeting scheduled at the same time, but it might be moving.
  • Need to get the agenda out before Xmas, so that people who confirmed early will get a quick reminder.

Agenda: 5:30-7:30pm

  • Dinner: no tables, so will do it at ~ 7pm - so that discussion can follow.
    • set up dinner around 6:30
  • APIs- still in a state of flux, but should be presentable by PAG
    • Need a summary and 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) (JE)
    • also with links to meetings and workshops and links to STEM stuff

Updates on the data annotations: rice and cassava
