Automating access to controlled dataset with DUO, the Data Use Ontology
Description
The GA4GH Data Use Ontology (DUO) allows users to semantically tag genomic datasets with usage restrictions, allowing them to become automatically discoverable based on a health, clinical, or biomedical researcher’s authorization level or intended use. DUO is based on the OBO Foundry principles and developed using the W3C Web Ontology Language. It is being used in production by the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) at EMBL-EBI/CRG as well as the Broad Institute for the Data Use Oversight System (DUOS).
