Tagging Bioconductor packages with EDAM

Key Points

Integrating the EDAM ontology improves organization of resources within Bioconductor and major initiatives like ELIXIR.
The EDAM ontology provides a structured framework for resource classification, enhancing accessibility for researchers.
Bioconductor relies on an ad hoc terminologic hierarchy called biocViews for tagging methods and data resources.
This approach may facilitate better resource discovery, suggesting a need for continued development in nomenclature systems.

Abstract

Introduction The EDAM ontology is used to provide conceptual organization of resources in major initiatives like ELIXIR bio.tools and Galaxy. Bioconductor’s methods and data are tagged using an ad hoc terminologic hierarchy called biocViews.
