IMCR Controlled vocabulary
Overview
The IMCR Controlled Vocabulary (CV) is organized around the DataONE data-life-cycle (with the notable exclusion of "analysis") and enables users to search on common IM tasks. To construct a search based on task, browse the vocabulary for terms of interest, then adding these to the "Filter Software List > Keywords" field of the IMCR Portal.
The CV is in the the alpha-release stage and undergoing revision. Contact Colin (colin.smith@wisc.edu) if you have comments or questions.
Action items
