Phenotype annotation editor
Enhance Phenote with necessary features to be productively and efficiently used by curators -- March 2008
- [complete] Initial Phenote configuration for PhenoScape data model
- [complete] Specimen List window allowing curators to repeatedly choose one or more taxa for EQ annotation
- [complete] Phylogeny view for selecting taxa to annotate
- [complete] Search field to filter table rows
- [complete] Ontology mode in search field for more advanced table filtering
- [complete] Configuration for editing homology annotations
- [complete] Transition PhenoScape components to Phenote 2 docking windows interface
- [complete] Use standard menus and keyboard shortcuts for Open, Save, Quit, Cut, Copy, Paste, etc.
- [complete] Improved document saving functionality. User should be able to quickly save a document to the same file it was opened from.
- [complete] Rework Specimen List as Taxon List: each taxon has multiple specimens which can be picked from during annotation as supporting evidence
- Choose museum code from pick list when entering specimen IDs
- Character matrix view of annotations: Taxon by Entity+Attribute
Unscheduled features
- Annotation using temporary terms, when an appropriate term is not available in an ontology. Ability to update these terms to official term once it is available.
- Make DAG view work browsing entire ontology, with drag-and-drop to fields
- Allow user to see what version of ontology is being used
- Create lookup-enabled Publication field (enter DOI or PMID)
Phenote integration with PhenoScape web application and database
- Determine whether to integrate standalone Phenote application with web database, or migrate components into web application
Ontology editor
Curators begin by using OBO-Edit to view and edit project ontologies -- August 2007
- [complete] Curators are using OBO-Edit successfully
