Résumé
The advancements in empirical technologies has generated vast amounts of heterogeneous data. This situation has created a need to integrate the data to understand the system of interest in its entirety. Therefore, information systems play a crucial role in managing these data, enabling the biologists in the extraction of new knowledge. The plant bioinformatics node of the Institut Français de Bioinformatique (IFB) maintains public information systems that houses domain specific data. Currently, efforts are being taken to expose the IFB plant bioinformatics resources as Linked Open Data, utilising domain specific ontologies and metadata. Here, we present the overview and the initial results of the project.
