Notes from teleconferences
30 November 2010
- invited: Arlin, Rutger, Hilmar, Paula Mabee, Peter Midford
topic: phenoscape interop phenotype annotations working group collaboration
what are the interop targets? what are the platforms? who are the players? why NESCent?
pre-discussion
- apply to RCN
- can commit to send someone to hackathon
Phenoscape project
- anatomy and phenotypic trait ontology
- character-state vs. EQ
- half of time spent developing ontologies
- importing ZFIN data (uses EQ)
- also mouse group does this
- phenoblast
Interop challenges
- integrative queries: all the fish that have lost eyes; what are the locations of blind animals;
- specimen vouchers
- associate phenotypes with images (cf. Greg Riccardi); want to pull in images from morphbank or paleodb or morphster
- mesquite module for EQ annotation
Post-discussion
- 18 K for wg meeting
Arlin, Mark Westneat
- yes to wg membership
- toolset with interoperable parts
- v graphical interface to aggregate and explore data
- what's missing is the way for a naive end-user to take advantage of that
- stakeholders meeting of interop technologists with end-users and interface designers to design the viz environment for trees, then work backwards to the strategy to get there
