Controlled Vocabulary Governance Resources

The FADS Open Science Hub no longer publishes a separate local ontology-governance workflow.

Use the canonical sources instead.

If you are changing the ontology

• Term request process: https://github.com/dfo-pacific-science/dfo-salmon-ontology/blob/main/docs/SUBMIT_REQUESTS_README.md

If you are reusing terms in a salmon data package

• Reusing standards + finding terms: https://dfo-pacific-science.github.io/metasalmon/articles/reusing-standards-salmon-data-terms.html
