Datasets

Flatmap sources held in the Physiome Model Repository (PMR) may be exported as a SPARC Dataset provided a JSON-formatted file describing the sources is referenced from the flatmap’s manifest. The JSON description provides values for the resulting description.xlsx file in the exported dataset. An example:

{
    "title": "Rat flatmap",
    "description": "Files for the rat flatmap.",
    "species": "NCBITaxon:10114",
    "keywords": [
        "SPARC",
        "flatmap",
        "rattus"
    ],
    "contributors": [
        {
            "name": "Brooks, David",
            "orcid": "0000-0002-6758-2186",
            "affiliation": "Auckland Bioengineering Institute",
            "role": "Creator",
            "contact": "Yes"
        },
        {
            "name": "Ebrahimi, Nazanin",
            "orcid": "0000-0001-7183-2638",
            "affiliation": "Auckland Bioengineering Institute",
            "role": "Creator",
            "contact": "Yes"
        },
        {
            "name": "Hunter, Peter",
            "orcid": "0000-0001-9665-4145",
            "affiliation": "Auckland Bioengineering Institute",
            "role": "Principle Investigator"
        }
    ],
    "funding": "OT3OD025349"
}

The JSON description is referred to in the flatmap’s manifest with the key description. Assuming the above is saved as description.json, the manifest would contain:

{

    "description": "description.json",

}
