Ontology term selection in the
ISAcreator editor
A ‘user-friendly’ standalone Java application that assists the experimentalists to annotate
the experimental metadata. Depending on the configuration (set via the ISAconfigurator
tool), certain fields prompt a pop-up browser to search and select terms from ontologies
that are accessed in real time via the Ontology Lookup Service and BioPortal.
