The Agronomic Linked Data (AgroLD) project

Agronomy is an overarching field that consists of various areas of research such Genetics, Plant Molecular Biology, Ecology and Earth Science. At the Institute of Computational Biology (IBC), we are currently building a RDF knowledge base, Agronomic Linked Data (AgroLD – www.agrold.org). The knowledge base is designed to integrate data from various publically available plant centric data sources. The aim of AgroLD project is to provide a portal for bioinformatics and domain experts to exploit the homogenized data model towards filling the knowledge gaps. To this end, we plan to engage with stakeholders in demonstrating the advantages of SW in answering complex domain relevant questions that were unapproachable using traditional methods, strategically filling knowledge gaps.
