ontology-term-resolution

Resolve free-text scientific labels to ontology term IDs and validate existing CURIEs against the EBI Ontology Lookup Service (OLS4). Also look up prefixes in Bioregistry, resolve compact identifiers via Identifiers.org, map lab shorthand with ZOOMA, and build Ontobee term pages. Use whenever an ontology identifier must be produced or checked - annotating tissue, cell type, disease, phenotype, assay, chemical, organism, sex, or developmental stage fields; preparing metadata for GEO, ENA, BioSamples, CELLxGENE, HCA, or ISA-Tab submission; auditing a metadata table of term IDs; checking whether a term is obsolete and what replaced it; or deciding HPO vs HP. Triggers include "ontology term", "ontology ID", "CURIE", "controlled vocabulary", "UBERON", "CL:", "MONDO", "HPO", "EFO", "ChEBI", "NCBITaxon", "GO term", "PATO", "Zooma", "Bioregistry", "Identifiers.org", "Ontobee", "annotate this tissue/cell type/disease", and any request to emit or verify an identifier shaped like PREFIX:0001234.
