remark EDAM is a community project and its development can be followed and contributed to at https://github.com/edamontology/edamontology., EDAM is particularly suitable for semantic annotations and categorisation of diverse resources related to data analysis and management: e.g. tools, workflows, learning materials, or standards. EDAM is also useful in data management itself, for recording provenance metadata of processed data.

description EDAM is a domain ontology of data analysis and data management in bio- and other sciences, and science-based applications. It comprises concepts related to analysis, modelling, optimisation, and data life cycle. Targetting usability by diverse users, the structure of EDAM is relatively simple, divided into 4 main sections: Topic, Operation, Data (incl. Identifier), and Format.
