---+ VO Model Annotation Syntax (VOMAS) VO mode annotation syntax proposes a syntax to map VOTable data on any model serialized in VO-DML. VOMAS annotations are grouped in a single XML block located in the resource head. The annota-tions operate as a bridge between the data and the model. It can denote the way data are connected to each other as well as dierent tables can be joined together. It is also able to carry data or meta-data that are missing in the VOTable. The annotation block is made of bricks that facilitate both annotation process and model instance reconstruction. it has been designed so as not to alter the original VOTable content, thus limiting its impact on legacy clients. ---++ History The first propasal for a solution for mapping data on models was based on GROUPS and UTypes. This approach suffered some flaws that could have been fixed, but to be consistant with VO-DML (REC in 2016), the IVOA decided to promote a mapping syntax closer to the VO-DML model serialization. The baseline of this approach consists in inserting into the VOTable to be anotated, an XML block that is is faith to the model structure and that acts as a bridge between the model leaves and the actual data. * A first [[https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/VODML-Mapping][proposal]] has been published as a VO working draft in 2018. Due to the lack of models to be mapped, this draft didn't go ahead at that time. * After this, the working group ran a wide [[https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/SourceCatalogs][survey]] to gather requirements for annotating source data. Another mapping syntax (namely vodml-lite) has been testesd in this context as well as along with the work of the time domain interest group. This alternative proposal was driven by the need of improving both readability and compactness of the annotations. Finally, in the end of 2020, the DM-WG has been mandated by the TCG to run a virtual [[https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/DMWorkshop][workshop]] to clearly define the model usage policy in the VO and a common syntax for the annotations. The present proposal is one of the major outcomes of that workshop. ---++ Standard and Tools The draft is managed following the GitHub workflow. The proposal is hosted in [[https://github.com/ivoa-std/ModelInstanceInVot][https://github.com/ivoa-std/ModelInstanceInVot]] * The PDF, updated after each merge on the main branch, can seen as a release [[https://github.com/ivoa-std/ModelInstanceInVot/releases/download/auto-pdf-preview/merged-syntax-draft.pdf][asset]] . * This draft comes with another repository (<a target="_top" href="https://github.com/ivoa/modelinstanceinvot-code">modelinstanceinvot-code</a>) that gathers codes that are being developped to exercise the mapping syntax on real data. * This project contain a few Jupyter notebooks that can be launched <a target="_top" href="https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/ivoa/modelinstanceinvot-code/merge-syntax">online</a> ---++ Annotations and Astropy The TCG mandate related to the mapping syntax also included the commitment of providing tools that could help both data provider and client developpers to assess the impact of working with annotated data. * A prototype of a TAP service annotating data on fly has been [[https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.01732][exposed]] at ADASS 2021. * Some work have also been put on the [[https://github.com/ivoa/modelinstanceinvot-code/wiki/Data-Annotations-and-AstroPyVO][design]] for an integration of the mapping processing into AstroPy/PyVO ecosystem. -- IVOA.LaurentMichel - 2022-03-11 <!-- * Set ALLOWTOPICRENAME = IVOA.TWikiAdminGroup -->
