The Edinburgh Mouse Atlas and Gene Expression Database project has developed a digital atlas of mouse development to provide a spatio-temporal framework for spatially mapped data such as in situ gene expression and cell lineage. As part of this database, a mouse embryo anatomy ontology has been created. A formalization of this anatomy is required to document its precise semantics and how it is used in the context of the Mouse Atlas.
