Proper Citation: Open PHACTS (RRID:SCR_005050)

Description: Project that developed an open access discovery platform, called Open Pharmacological Space (OPS), via a semantic web approach, integrating pharmacological data from a variety of information resources and tools and services to question this integrated data to support pharmacological research. The project is based upon the assimilation of data already stored as triples, in the form subject-predicate-object. The software and data are available for download and local installation, under an open source and open access model. Tools and services are provided to query and visualize this data, and a sustainability plan will be in place, continuing the operation of the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform after the project funding ends. Throughout the project, a series of recommendations will be developed in conjunction with the community, building on open standards, to ensure wide applicability of the approaches used for integration of data.
