EBP Dashboard

Overview

This repository contains the Earth BioGenome Project (EBP) Dashboard - an interactive visualization platform tracking the progress and global impact of the EBP initiative. The dashboard provides various data visualizations showing sequencing progress across taxonomic ranks, geographic distribution of affiliate projects, and network connections within the global EBP community.

About the Earth BioGenome Project

The Earth BioGenome Project (EBP) is a moonshot for biology that aims to sequence, catalog, and characterize the genomes of all of Earth's eukaryotic biodiversity over a period of ten years. With approximately 1.8 million named eukaryotic species targeted, the EBP creates a new foundation for biology to drive solutions for preserving biodiversity and sustaining human societies.

Dashboard Components

Assembly Progress Visualizations

• Progress Over the Years: Annual assembly progress at the family and species level
• Progress at all Taxonomic Levels: Animation display of assembly progress at main taxonomic ranks
• Phylogenomic Display of Progress at Order Level: Phylogenomic tree of orders with at least one species sequenced by EBP
• Progress by Phylum Groups: Number of eukaryotic species sequenced by EBP grouped by phylum
• Affiliate Progress: Assembly progress across EBP affiliate projects
• EBP Contribution to Assemblies Meeting EBP Metrics: EBP's contribution to assemblies meeting quality metrics at species, genus, and family levels

Network Visualizations

• Global Distribution: Geographic distribution of EBP affiliates around the world
• Affiliate Network: Wired map showing EBP and affiliate network connections

How to Navigate

1. Visit the EBP Dashboard (replace with actual GitHub Pages URL)
2. The dashboard homepage displays all available visualizations organized by category
3. Each visualization link includes:
   • An icon representing the type of visualization
   • The name of the visualization
   • A brief description of what the visualization shows
4. Click on any visualization card to open it in a new tab
5. Within each visualization, interactive elements allow you to:
   • Hover over data points for detailed information
   • Filter data based on various parameters
   • View animations of progress over time (in selected visualizations)
