Schema resources for the National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC)

National Microbiome Data Collaborative Schema

This repository defines a linkml schema for managing metadata from the National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC). The NMDC is a multi-organizational effort to integrate microbiome data across diverse areas in medicine, agriculture, bioenergy, and the environment. This integrated platform facilitates comprehensive discovery of and access to multidisciplinary microbiome data in order to unlock new possibilities with microbiome data science.

Tasks managed by the repository are:

• Generating the schema
• Converting the schema from it's native LinkML/YAML format into other artifacts
  • JSON-Schema
• Deploying the schema as a PyPI package
• Deploying the documentation

Background

The NMDC Introduction to metadata and ontologies primer provides some the context for this project.

See also these slides describing the schema.
