Public health genomics contextual data includes sample metadata, lab/clinical/epidemiological data, and analysis methods information. Contextual data enables the interpretation of the sequence data, informs decision making for public health responses, and facilitates scientific understanding of infectious disease. Structured and consistent contextual data can also be more easily processed, aggregated, and reused by both humans and computers for different types of analyses.

The SARS-CoV-2 contextual data specification includes a metadata collection template, reference guide, controlled vocabulary, and mapping to existing standards. We also provide a suite of protocols for submitting sequence data and contextual data to public repositories, enabling global interoperability of the data. The specification and all of the supporting materials are freely available and detailed below.

The reference guide aims to facilitate the use of the collection template. It contains field definitions, further guidance/instructions, and examples of structured data. Mapping of PHA4GE fields to existing metadata standards such as the Sample Application Standard, MIxS v 5.0, and the MIGS Virus Host-associated package can be found in the reference guide.
