EOL Today
Key Milestones in 2013
1.1 million species pages
242 content providers
3 million unique visitors from 223 countries & territories
![Page 4: The Road to TraitBank: What's Next for the Encyclopedia of Life](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081602/5405f1868d7f729b768b50de/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
GenBank 60 million DNA sequence records
900,000 species 4,000 genomes
How are these related to traits?

First step: add traits to EOL
Funded: Marine focus
<scientific name> <name of attribute> <value><scientific name> <preysOn> <scientific name>
Harvest and display on data tabDownloads, fancy searchingMachine access

Next step: Create TraitBank
• Scale up • Promote best practices• Promote new tools &
analysis• Enable crowd-sourcing

Quick math
In Phenoscape57 publications had 565,158 anatomical trait descriptions for 2,527 kinds of organisms= 223 traits/organism
In ZFIN 38,189 trait descriptions for 4,727 genes for ZebraFish
1.9 million species on the planet
= LOTS OF TRAITS

Why EOL + TraitBank
EOL
Crowds
Harvest
Third party applications
