[bioontology-support] Ontology View

[Trish Whetzel]

Hi Aniket,

Currently the auto-complete widget does not include the feature you  
mention, however I added this as a feature request.  In the interim,  
you can use the View Extraction web service ( http://www.bioontology.org/wiki/index.php/View_Extraction 
  ) to extract all children of the concept "Ethnic group" as a subtree  
from SNOMED CT and then load this subtree as a View of SNOMED CT ( http://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/42789#views 
  ).

Details on the View Extraction web service are described here:
http://www.bioontology.org/wiki/index.php/View_Extraction

and therefore the corresponding URL to extract the "Ethnic group"  
subtree is:
http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/viewextractor/42789/?conceptid=372148003&ontologyname=http://testing.org/ethnic-group.owl&delay=10

Trish

PS - cc'ing support at bioontology.org to log this request
