Data Integration¶
This section addresses:
-
:USDA #4:¶ Allow incorporation ARS ontology for ingredients nomenclature with access to external databases.
-
:USDA #3:¶ Provide links to other nutrition-related databases.
Ontomatica Coverage¶
Ontomatica integrates data from projects sponsored by the following authorities.
Integration enables Ontomatica to automate the specification of a food description using authority terms familiar to a depositor.
An authority can easily verify that components of a food description accurately represent their data.
Ontomatica has developed web services that keep integrated data fresh and accurate.
