Where can I find definitions for terms in the NF-OSI dictionary?

The Versioned releases of our core NF-OSI metadata dictionary is are hosted on Google Sheets Github in CSV and JSON format.

  • The Attribute column lists all NF-OSI terms: concepts (like dataType) and values for those concepts (like geneExpression)

  • The Description column provides a definition for each Attribute

  • The Valid Values column lists all of the terms that are allowed for concepts listed in the Attribute column

  • The remaining columns are out of the scope of this FAQ, but are documented in detail here.

You may also find ourhttps://help.nf.synapse.org/NFdocs/2560131149.html helpful for exploring the metadata dictionary.
