Internationalisation and realisation of the interdisciplinary potential of the online annotation system - AnnoSys and its extension to further structured data formats.

生物多样性数据通过一系列互联网门户和服务进行汇总、链接并向全球提供。传统上，在生物多样性研究中，标本以书面形式注释，注释标签直接应用于物理对象，从而使标本的下一个观察者可以访问。这些注释是一个重要的质量控制机制，提高了馆藏的价值，并记录了随着时间的推移的研究进展。通过互联网获取生物多样性数据的机会越来越多，这就要求建立一个通用的在线注释系统，以确保传统数据共享的持续性。AnnoSys为复杂和交叉链接的数据开发了一个注释数据存储库的示例性规范，包括后端服务器功能，Web服务和在线用户界面。一个功能齐全的原型已经实现了使用标准化的数据，从生物收集，提供了大量的GBIF和BioCASE网络。拟议的后续项目的主要目标是（1）将现有的AnnoSys系统推广到主要的生物多样性门户网站，包括全球生物多样性信息机制、生命目录、全球基因组生物多样性网络和其他几个地方倡议，为了DFG-Vordruck 12.011 - 03/13 Seite 3 von 6进一步建立该领域的系统和方法，并收集用户输入以改进界面和程序。这将包括系统处理的生物多样性内容类型的扩展。(2)将AnnoSys的通用特性扩展到进一步的结构化数据格式，包括具有机器可读明确语义概念的非基于XML的标准，从而开放通过AnnoSys收集的数据，用于语义网和开放数据。这也将包括基于W3C开放注释标准与其他注释系统的可能集成的调查。

Biodiversity data are aggregated, linked and made globally accessible via a range of Internet portals and services. Traditionally, in biodiversity research, specimens are annotated in written form, with annotation labels being applied directly to the physical object, thus becoming accessible to the next observer of the specimen. These annotations are an important quality control mechanism, improving the value of the collection and documenting research developments over time. The increasing accessibility of biodiversity data via the Internet calls for a general online annotation system that ensures the continuance of the traditional data sharing. AnnoSys developed an exemplary specification for an annotation data repository for complex and cross-linked data including back-end server functionality, web services and an on-line user interface. A fully functional prototype has been implemented using standardised data from biological collections that are provided in large quantities in the GBIF and BioCASE networks. The main objectives of the proposed follow-up project are (1) Rolling out the current AnnoSys system to major biodiversity portal, including the Global Biodiversity Information Facility, Catalogue of Life, the Global Genome Biodiversity Network and several more local initiatives, in order to DFG-Vordruck 12.011 - 03/13 Seite 3 von 6 further establish the system and methodology in the domain and to gather user input for improving the interface and procedures. This will include extensions of the types of biodiversity content handled by the system. (2) Extending the generic qualities of AnnoSys to further structured data formats including non-XML-based standards with machine readable explicit semantic concepts, and thus opening up the data gathered through AnnoSys for the Semantic Web and Open Data. This will also include the investigation of a possible integration with other annotation systems based on the W3C Open Annotation standard.
