The eNanoMapper ontologies aim to provide a comprehensive suite of ontologies for the nanomaterial safety assessment domain (see http://www.enanomapper.net for project information). The full suite of ontologies can be found assembled by imports in the primary enanomapper.owl file.
ontology-metadata-slim.owl - excerpt of the IAO (http://information-artifact-ontology.googlecode.com/) including metadata (annotation properties) only. nm.owl - nanomaterial descriptors ontology using the CHEMINF ontology
We import the NanoParticle Ontology (see http://nano-ontology.org); CHEMINF (https://github.com/semanticchemistry/semanticchemistry/); parts of ChEBI (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi); and others (TBD).
The stable version can be opened in Protégé with the following step:
- File → Open from URL...
- enter the URL http://purl.enanomapper.net/onto/enanomapper.owl
The development version is opened in the same way, but with a different URL:
- File → Open from URL...
- enter the URL http://purl.enanomapper.net/onto/enanomapper-dev.owl
During (and after) the eNanoMapper project the ontology was autobuilt using scripts on a Jenkins server. The main OWL file (enanomapper.owl) refers to slimmed versions of external ontologies, complemented with internal files adding additional terms. The slimming of the external ontologies is done with the Slimmer tool, with these commands (for the BioAssay Ontology):
rm -f *.owl
rm -f *.owl.*
wget -O bao_complete.owl http://www.bioassayontology.org/bao/bao_complete.owl
rm -f bao.props*
rm -f bao.iris*
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enanomapper/ontologies/master/config/bao.props
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enanomapper/ontologies/master/config/bao.iris
java -cp ../Slimmer/target/slimmer-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar com.github.enanomapper.Slimmer .
The bao.props and bao.iris files contain all the information needed to describe which parts of the BAO ontology is retained in the slimmed version.
