A. Chytas, N. Bassiliades, P. Natsiavas, “OMOP-CDM mapping to RDF/OWL: Attempting to bridge the OHDSI ecosystem and the Semantic Web world”, presented at, 15th International Semantic Web Applications and Tools for Health Care and Life Science Conference (SWAT4HCLS 2024), Leiden 26-29 Feb 2024.
Utilizing Real-World Data (RWD) for secondary use is still an open issue. Initiatives like OHDSI aim to tackle it by introducing a common data model (OMOP-CDM) to which data providers can opt to convert their data. While OMOP-CDM supports data interoperability and maintains a degree of intertwined terminologies/vocabularies, does not utilize the benefits of the Semantic Web technical paradigm. This paper presents an effort to convert the OMOPCDM to RDF format to further enhance its linked data capabilities.
