AskOmics
Keywords: RDF - SPARQL - Querying - Graph
Functional Description
AskOmics allows to load heterogeneous bioinformatics data (formatted as tabular files or directly in RDF) into a Triple Store system using a user-friendly web interface. AskOmics also provides an intuitive graph-based user interface supporting the creation of complex queries that currently require hours of manual searches across tens of spreadsheet files. The elements of interest selected in the graph are then automatically converted into a SPARQL query that is executed on the users' data.
