Welcome
Data Curator App
The data ingress process uses the Data Curator App (DCA), which is a web-based metadata upload application. It allows you as a data contributor to easily annotate, validate and submit your metadata. You can use the app to generate an empty metadata template, or to update existing metadata.
Sage Bionetworks hosts DCA for its collaborators. DCA is an R Shiny app that serves as the frontend to the schematic Python package.
The documentation on this website is specific to Sage Bionetworks/the DCA. Information specific to HTAN can be found in the HTAN manual.
The Data Coordinating Center (DCC) dataset ingress process consists of three easy steps (note: not all of these steps may be relevant to your Center):
Organize your data
Upload your dataset to your selected cloud bucket
Validate and submit your metadata
If you need clarification at any point, please don’t hesitate to contact your data liaison or use our Help Desk.
