Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) - gnomad

Grade
The grade for the resource as automatically determined by the criteria violations.
3
Description
A full description of the resource from the resource itself, if possible.
The Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), is a coalition of investigators seeking to aggregate and harmonize exome and genome sequencing data from a variety of large-scale sequencing projects, and to make summary data available for the wider scientific community. In its first release, which contained exclusively exome data, it was known as the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC).
Last curated
(Optional) The ISO 8601 date of when the resource was last curated.

License
The license that is used by the resource. We use SPDX where we can or: "inconsistent", "public domain", "unlicensed", "all rights reserved", or "custom".
ODbL-1.0
License type
The type of license that is being used. This will be to define compatible data pools in the future; we only use the grossest terms now. If it is not known "unknown" is used. Current possible values are: "unknown", "unlicensed", "copyleft", "permissive", "public domain", "copyright", "restrictive", or "private pool".

License location
(Optional) The link to the resource license.

Focused curation
(Optional) Setting this flag to true indicates that the licensing was combinatorially complicated enough (as is the case in some commercial licenses) that the curator chose to wear a single "hat" during the process. From the site text: "While we try to cover as much of the licensing possibilities of a data resource that we can, in a few cases we may choose a particular "hat" to wear while evaluating to prevent a combinatorial explosion, which may also reduce the clarity of our curations for the community. In these cases, we may take on the role of a (1) non-commercial (2) academic (3) group that is (4) based in the US and trying to (5) create an aggregating resource, noting that other entities may have different results in the license commentary."
false
Issues
(Optional) Structured issues with the license. For every issue discovered with a resource, there should be a corresponding item in the license-issues field that marks the /exact/ violation, along with any comments. This field can be used by resources as the first step to improvement, as well as clarify any surrounding circumstances. Any issues or thoughts about a resource that do not slot into one of the criteria violations can go into the license-commentary field.
Criteria D.1.2: While extremely open, the ODbL does restrict the ability to mix and redistribute with data without similar terms.
Criteria E.1.2: By using the ODbL, there may be some parties with issues in mixing and redistributing this data with licenses that have incompatible terms.
Commentary
(Optional) Further commentary on the license, possibly including the though process of the curations and things like locations of additional licenses.

Controversial
(Optional) Marker noting that there was some extended internal discussion or controversy about the evaluation of the licensing terms. If this is marked at "true", the controversy, or a link to a permanent archive of the controversy, must be sufficiently contained in the "license-commentary" to reconstruct the issues.
false

(Optional) Resource contact information, link, email, or whatever is public.
