Mondo release request

[matentzn]

In order to map Mondo to other disease ontologies, I basically need mondo-base.owl and the equivalent-class mappings of MONDO ids to other disease ontology IDS (DOID, ORPHANET, etc).

Is it possible to include the MONDO alignments (bridges) as part of the release in a sperate file?

I concur that this would be of general use. Does the definition of 'equivalent-class' mapping require that the MONDO/Other relationship is strictly 1:1?

@matentzn the equivalencies are always available at http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/mondo/imports/equivalencies.owl

base:
http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/mondo/mondo-base.owl

@maglott - the semantics of owl equivalentClass are such that all concepts are strictly identical in meaning. This always translates to a 1:1 mapping, except when we do a 'proxy merge' - we decide that two concepts in an external resource mean the same thing. This is rare, and the numbers usually come down as we work with the upstream to resolve this.

I will leave this open until we have better documentation and all our products are fully described on the obo page

Thanks

Ok thanks! I will close this then for now!
