The semanticscience integrated ontology (SIO) provides a simple, integrated upper level ontology (types, relations) for consistent knowledge representation across physical, processual and informational entities.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Semanticscience Integrated Ontology should match this regular expression:
^\d{6}$

Example Local Unique Identifier

000912   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Semanticscience Integrated Ontology should match this regular expression:
^SIO:\d{6}$

Example CURIE

SIO:000912

Namespace Embedded in LUI

This resource has been annotated by the Bioregistry as having a potential namespace embedded in LUI. This means that you may see local unique identifiers that include a redundant prefix and delimiter (also known as a banana) and therefore look like a CURIE. For , the banana looks like SIO_. Therefore, you may see local unique identifiers for this resource that look like SIO_000912 (instead of the canonical form 000912) and CURIEs for this resource that look like SIO:SIO_000912 (instead of the canonical form SIO:000912). The Bioregistry will automatically strip off the banana when standardizing local unique identifiers and CURIEs.

Mappings from records in Bioregistry to external registries comprises the metaregistry. This resource has 12 mappings to external registries with 2 unique external prefixes.

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier 000912 is used to demonstrate the providers available for Semanticscience Integrated Ontology. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
