The NCBO Resource Web service is a system for ontology based annotation and indexing of biomedical data; the key functionality of this system is to enable users to locate biomedical data resources related to particular ontology concepts. The annotations are generated using the NCBO Annotator and presented through integration with BioPortal, enabling researchers to search for biomedical resources associated (annotated) with specific ontology terms. The NCBO Resources web service uses a concept recognizer (currently provided by the National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics, University of Michigan) to produce a set of annotations and expand these using ontology is_a relations in the ontology. The system's indexing workflow processes the text metadata of diverse resource elements such as gene expression data sets, descriptions of radiology images, clinical trial reports, and PubMed article abstracts to annotate and index them with concepts from appropriate ontologies. Researchers can then search biomedical data sources using ontology concepts.
