This ontology is to map measurable vertebrate traits. We leverage the BioCollections Ontology (BCO) to link observations of individual specimens to their trait values. Traits are defined in the Ontology of Biological Attributes (OBA).
More information on the ontology can be found at http://obofoundry.org/ontology/fovt (once ontology is registered).
More information on FuTRES is available at https://futres.org/.
