Abstract
The Comparative Data Analysis Ontology (CDAO) is an ontology developed, as part of the EvoInfo and EvoIO groups supported by NESCent, to provide semantics to the descriptions of data and transformations commonly found in the domain of phylogenetic inference. The core concepts of the ontology enables the description of phylogenetic trees and associated character data matrices. CDAO-store is a repository providing a rich set of API’s for querying and visualizing phyloinformatics data. It is a triple-store encoding data as RDF triples constructed according to the CDAO concept vocabulary. CDAO-store provides three classes of services: a service for importing data in CDAO format, a PhyloWS interface supporting an advanced set of queries for other external applications, and a web-interface for visualizing and interacting with data in the store.
