Applicable Classes

Name Description Modifies Slot
Measurement A qualitative or quantitative observation of an attribute of an object or event against a standardized scale, to enable it to be compared with other objects or events. no
QuantityValue A simple quantity, e.g. 2cm. May be used to describe a range using the minimum_value and maximum_value fields. no
ClusterMember Relationship representing membership of a cluster. An optional score can be assigned to each cluster member. no
AssociationXSupportingObject Links associations to entities to capture supporting objects in an association. ay be a biological entity, such as a protein or feature, or a URL to a resource (e.g. a publication) that supports the association. Where possible, CDM identifiers should be used. yes
Geolocation A normalized value for a location on the earth's surface no
TextValue A basic string value no
Entity A database entity. yes
Identifier A string used as a resolvable (external) identifier for an entity. This should be a URI or CURIE. If the string cannot be resolved to an URL, it should be added as a 'name' instead.

This table is used for capturing external IDs. The internal CDM identifier should be used in the *_id field (e.g. feature_id, protein_id, contig_collection_id).
no
Sequence yes
Name A string used as the name or label for an entity. This may be a primary name, alternative name, synonym, acronym, or any other label used to refer to an entity.

Identifiers that look like CURIEs or database references, but which cannot be resolved using bioregistry or identifiers.org should be added as names.
