abstract = {Legal and technical developments drive data sharing via
federated infrastructures, especially in the field of human
omics. This requires interoperability across technical,
syntactic, organizational, and semantic layers. The German
Human Genome-Phenome Archive (GHGA) has been building a
national, federated infrastructure for secure sharing of
human omics data. As part of its mission to enhance
interoperability and to promote reliable data sharing, a
detailed crosswalk analysis was conducted comparing the GHGA
metadata model with four other domain-relevant standards and
metadata models: EGA (Submission API and model draft), FAIR
Genomes and ISA-tab. The analysis aimed at identifying
semantic consensus fields to define datasets in the context
of human omics by forward mapping (GHGA model to external
models). Backward mapping (external models to GHGA) focused
on spotting gaps in GHGA's semantic metadata representation.
Forward mapping showed overall similar property coverage
across models, aligning with MINSEQE. Backward mapping
showed greater model heterogeneity. None of the identified
information gaps spanned across all models. These findings
highlight the detail and adaptability of the GHGA metadata
model.},
