The Minimal Information about any (x) Sequence (MIxS) standard is a product of the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC). The GSC has a mission of enabling genomic data integration, discovery, and comparison through international community-driven standards.
This code repository was developed in collaboration between the National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC) and the GSC. It transitions a spreadsheet version of the MIxS standard into a machine-actionable, self-documenting schema adhering to the Linked Data Modelling Language (LinkML).
- Term attributes are harmonized
- Previously informal data constraints are formalized
- Implicit classes are made explicit
- Example data is provided
- Validation tools are provided
This work is provided for consideration as MIxS 6.2 and will be presented at the 23rd Genomic Standards Consortium Meeting in August 2023 in Bangkok, Thailand.
