  • Properties in Thesaurus that support the browsers
    • Subsets in Thesaurus (Protege)
      • Publish_Value_Set
      • Term_Browser_Value_Set_Description
      • Value_Set_Location - where browser fetches the report from (ftp location and path within evs, and filename, BNF)
      • TVS_Location - Terminology Value Set OWL file - hierarchy and components
    • Properties are scrubbed before loading into LexEVS - these are private/internal properties.
  • Baseline - A diff is done on the value sets from month to month.  Triggers update load procedures monthly.  
    • Load, Remove and Resolve scripts are generated for changes
  • OWL file provides information about where the value set lives in the hierarchy.
  • NCI Thesaurus and TVS  (provides structure to value sets)  - used by the browser
  • Process was created to provide structure/hierarchy to value sets
  • Value Set loads - 700 coding schemes - loaded in 24 hours
  • If value set resolution is performed against a new version of the code system, does LexEVS handle the versions?
  • Process currently isn't limited to NCIT.
  • Script created to create a txt file that views hierarchy of concepts on value set.
  • value set downloads are ~10k a month and used across agencies by diverse set of consumers.
  • curation and delivery processes are driven by the users and consumers.
  • EVS authors editors work directly with CDISC and other groups.
  • CDISC and FDA have different formats and standards 
  • Resolved value sets as coding schemes - done that way for performance.
  • Process can be error prone for the EVS Editors.  The editors need to do specific things to drive Browser.
