RDML

Adopt RDML as a standard for presence/absence data?

  • TAQMAN panel
  • Cepheid results
  • Clinical testing?

Motivations

  1. Stop using a bespoke format internal to Samplify.

Challenges

  1. This is a clear choice for qPCR-based presence/absence results (with Cq values), but does RDML make sense for presence/absence results reported without a quantification? Does the format allow for this?

  2. We will need to either convince NWGC to send us the RDML, or we will need to transform from their JSON to RDML ourselves.
