The genomic data chaos is a relevant problem in the field of genomics. Therefore, the definition of a solid knowledge basis in this field is essential. Ontologies provide a precise and unambiguous specification when describing domains, offering a way to encode the knowledge of different areas of practice. The Wiki-Genome project aims to exploit this potential to provide a standard classification in the genomic field that could be used by different projects on an individual basis or jointly, facilitating communication between different researchers. The Wiki-Genome project is based on the description of a top-level ontology, its implementation on a physical level and the various tools available to provide data management characterized by this ontology. The goal of the Wiki-Genome project is to offer a holistic approach to the field of genomics that ends with the genomic data chaos, offering a genomic information management system, for the exploitation and introduction of data, guided by models.
