Workflow

ORA imports heterogeneous datasets from Tara Oceans in order to present an integrated explorative display of the sequencing reads distribution in the oceans (see Figure 1). Field campaigns (blue) have collected plankton biosamples and in situ environmental parameters. The ORA web server (yellow) combines the following data published by distinct archives : kmindex computation for the sequencing reads index (green), ENA for the sequencing archive and PANGAEA for contextual environmental data (purple).
