Mapping Concepts - OpenConceptLab/ocl_user_wiki GitHub Wiki

Mapping concepts is the way to show how different Concepts relate to each other. There are two discrete types of mapping that OCL supports.

###Internal OCL allows users to map Concepts from Sources stored on OCL to other Concepts from Sources stored in OCL

###External OCL also allows users to map Concepts from Sources stored in OCL to Concepts from Sources stored outside OCL (External).

#INTERNAL MAPPINGS

#####To Map one Concept (the reference concept) to another Concept (the destination concept) from a Source stored in OCL (e.g. to map two Concepts that are both in CIEL)

  • Navigate to the Source where the reference concept is stored. sourcemap

  • Select the Concept you are mapping from- the reference concept. referenceconcept

  • Choose the Mappings tab. On the bottom of the section, select "Add Mapping" mappingstab

  • Select the Internal button, and enter the details of the Mapping, including Map Type mappingdetails

  • Enter the url of the Concept you are mapping to (the destination concept). This is a url from a Source stored within OCL. mappingurl

#EXTERNAL MAPPINGS To Map one Concept (the reference concept) to another Concept (the destination concept) from a Source stored outside of OCL (e.g. to map a Concept from CIEL to a Concept in RxNorm)

  • Navigate to the Source where the reference concept is stored. sourcemap

  • Select the Concept you are mapping from- the reference concept. referenceconcept

  • Choose the Mappings tab. On the bottom of the section, select "Add Mapping" mappingstab

  • Select the External button, and enter the details of the Mapping, including Map Type mappingdetailsexternal

  • Enter the url of the Concept you are mapping to (the destination concept). This is a url from a Source stored outside of OCL.
