Pedro: Combining Rapid Data Modelling and Ontology Services by Kevin Garwood E-Science North West Centre Manchester University
What it Does… • renders data entry forms given an XML Schema • people use the forms to create data files that conform to the data model • users can mark up text fields with controlled vocabulary terms supplied by ontology services
Project History • originally developed to suit the needs of COGEME, a proteomics consortium • supported by COGEME and Manchester University’s ESNW Centre, later by the EBI • first release almost immediately spilled into other domains such as genomics, security, distributed computing…. • COGEME used the tool to successfully promote a data model standard • now tool is being used for data entry
Validating Files against the Model Q: “Could this data file been made using this model?”
