2. Project Goal (from the proposal) The overall goal of this two-year project is to establish a comprehensive, easily accessible public resource database of images, videos, and animations of cells from a variety of organisms, including both cell architecture and intracellular functionalities, as well as stimulate the economy through the creation and retention of 18 (7 full-time equivalents) positions and immediate deployment.

17. Indexing OMERO repository provides a way for developers to add their own custom indexing step in order to generate custom search indexing fields and values. Custom indexing plug-in, written in Java and configured into the OMERO system. Each image upon modification is presented to the custom plug-in

18. Cell Library Custom Indexing Generating Index Values Custom Lucene document index fields – Id – Ontology information for each term in each ontology category term id parent id ancestor ids term description synonym description – attribution (names, pubmed, citations, urls) – is_recommended (for front page/browse poster child image) – is_video – description – license type – publish date (useful for Recent browsing) – dimensions

26. Library Advanced Search

27. Advanced Search If the ontology search value is exact match for existing term, returns matches against term and descendant terms e.g. “rodentia” will match rat, mouse, etc. If the ontology search value does not match an existing ontology term a simple text match search against that ontology category is run

28. Library Browse Categories – Cell Process (GO biological_process) – Cellular Component (GO cellular_component) – Cell Type (cell type CL) – Organism (NCBITaxon) Sub-categories consist of all ontology terms currently annotated to images…captured during Indexing phase Efficiency (NCBI 500K+)
