Abstract
A vast and rich body of information has grown up as a result of the world's enthusiasm for 'omics technologies. Finding ways to describe and make available this information that maximise its usefulness has become a major effort across the 'omics world. At the heart of this effort is the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC), an open-membership organization that drives community-based standardization activities, Here we provide a short history of the GSC, provide an overview of its range of current activities, and make a call for the scientific community to join forces to improve the quality and quantity of contextual information about our public collections of genomes, metagenomes, and marker gene sequences.

Finding ways to describe and make available this information that maximise its usefulness has become a major effort across the 'omics world. At the heart of this effort is the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC), an open-membership organization that drives community-based standardization activities, Here we provide a short history of the GSC, provide an overview of its range of current activities, and make a call for the scientific community to join forces to improve the quality and quantity of contextual information about our public collections of genomes, metagenomes, and marker gene sequences.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Liolios, K" uniqKey="Liolios K">K Liolios</name></author><author><name sortKey="Chen, I M" uniqKey="Chen I">I.

Finding ways to describe and make available this information that maximise its usefulness has become a major effort across the 'omics world. At the heart of this effort is the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC), an open-membership organization that drives community-based standardization activities, Here we provide a short history of the GSC, provide an overview of its range of current activities, and make a call for the scientific community to join forces to improve the quality and quantity of contextual information about our public collections of genomes, metagenomes, and marker gene sequences.</p></abstract><counts><page-count count="3"></page-count></counts></article-meta></front></pmc><affiliations><list><country><li>Allemagne</li><li>Belgique</li><li>Danemark</li><li>Royaume-Uni</li><li>États-Unis</li></country><region><li>Angleterre</li><li>Brême (Land)</li><li>Californie</li><li>Colorado</li><li>Illinois</li><li>Maryland</li><li>Massachusetts</li><li>Michigan</li><li>Nouveau-Mexique</li><li>Oxfordshire</li></region><settlement><li>Brême</li><li>East Lansing</li><li>Oxford</li></settlement><orgName><li>Université d'Oxford</li><li>Université d'État du Michigan</li></orgName></list><tree><country name="Royaume-Uni"><noRegion><name sortKey="Field, Dawn" sort="Field, Dawn" uniqKey="Field D" first="Dawn" last="Field">Dawn Field</name></noRegion><name sortKey="Cochrane, Guy" sort="Cochrane, Guy" uniqKey="Cochrane G" first="Guy" last="Cochrane">Guy Cochrane</name><name sortKey="Sansone, Susanna Assunta" sort="Sansone, Susanna Assunta" uniqKey="Sansone S" first="Susanna-Assunta" last="Sansone">Susanna-Assunta Sansone</name><name sortKey="Sterk, Peter" sort="Sterk, Peter" uniqKey="Sterk P" first="Peter" last="Sterk">Peter Sterk</name></country><country name="États-Unis"><region name="Massachusetts"><name sortKey="Amaral Zettler, Linda" sort="Amaral Zettler, Linda" uniqKey="Amaral Zettler L" first="Linda" last="Amaral-Zettler">Linda Amaral-Zettler</name></region><name sortKey="Cole, James R" sort="Cole, James R" uniqKey="Cole J" first="James R." last="Cole">James R.
