Re: [math-fun] open tree of life
="Hilarie Orman" <ho@alum.mit.edu> As near as I was able to tell, you need to install their software and load all the databases. If there's something easier, I'd like to know.
It seems you can simple talk to their site directly through HTTP. For example when I issued (my analog of) the example command they give: curl -X POST http://api.opentreeoflife.org/v2/tree_of_life/about -H "content-type:application/json" -d '{"study_list":false}' I got the following JSON payload in response { date: "2015-05-06 12:23:30.995" tree_id: "opentree3.0" taxonomy_version: "ott2.8draft5" num_tips: 2339460 root_taxon_name: "cellular organisms" num_source_studies: 479 root_node_id: 1 root_ott_id: 93302 } Their APIs doc is at https://github.com/OpenTreeOfLife/opentree/wiki/Open-Tree-of-Life-APIs
I was hoping for something that would display the data graphically, as in their paper, with zoom capability. I assumed without verification that their software provided something like that. Hilarie

If you are interested in this sort of thing, the original is the NCBI Taxonomy page, at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Browser/wwwtax.cgi. On Mon, Sep 21, 2015 at 5:39 PM, Hilarie Orman <ho@alum.mit.edu> wrote:
