NIDASH Family of Documents

This document is part of the NIDASH Family of Documents, a set of documents defining various aspects of neuroimaging research that are necessary to achieve the vision of inter-operable interchange of information in heterogeneous environments such as the Web, research consortia, and laboratories. A list of current NIDASH documents and the latest revision of this specification can be found in the NIDM specification index. These documents are listed below.

• NIDM-OVERVIEW (Draft), an overview of the NIDASH Model Specificatin Suite (this document);
• NIDM-PRIMER (Draft), a primer for the NIDASH data model [[!NIDM-P]];
• NIDM-DESCRIPTOR (Draft), the NIDM Dataset Descriptor is a high level description of neuroimaging data modeled using NIDM [[!NIDM-D]];
• NIDM-EXPERIMENT (Draft), a data model for describing the organization of raw neuroimaging experiment data [[!NIDM-E]];
• NIDM-RESULTS (Draft), a data model for describing the results of neuroimaging analyses.[[!NIDM-R]].

Implementations Encouraged

The NIDASH Working Group encourages implementation of the specifications overviewed in this document. Work on this document by the NIDASH Working Group is ongoing, errors and suggestions may be reported in the issue tracker and these may be addressed in future revisions.
