This is Disha's DBGI daily open-notebook.

Doing

  1. #VKG (Private) modify TRY-db csv file to include 1 column explaining the data type (one of the folloiwng three values): continuous-trait, discrete-trait, non-trait to distinguish between quuantitative & non-quanititattive trait and non trait data
  2. #SciComm (Private) In talks with Manuela Dahinden to shape the AGORA grant. Meeting on 17th May with Manuela, Emmanuel and Pierr-Marie.
  3. Start Intro for the paper.
  4. Discussion with Manu today on: a) Run queries with only plants from ENPKG. Think abut what the user wants.

b) Similarity matrices for traits: scaling followed by euclidean and bray-curtis. how about mixing them (take avg) and then plot node distance based on the avg distance, different edge coloring/width by distance specific to a metric.

c) human-plant interaction. Is there a database which lists plants edible?

d) Manu will provide climate change data from GBIF or from GIFT.

Done

In the last 2 weeks, I did the following:

  1. #VKG (Private) Ontop setup and sparql endpoint on UniFr machine

Todo tomorrow or soon

  1. #SciComm (Private) Philipp gave contacts for people who can help with making videos.

From Philip:

Mirko Bischofberger (also a film maker):

  1. #VKG (Private) Incorporate ttl files for traits on the ontop VKG for coherence.
  2. #SciComm (Private) Build a graphical overview of the two ideas discussed with Manuela.

Today I learned that

Paused

  1. Profile article for the DBGI website.
  2. DISPEL conversation.
  3. Looked at PheObs, AusTraits and Globi. AusTraits looks very promising. Have to see how they integrated data.
