A proposed workflow for an online public database for published IMS data sets. Database contributors can submit annotated and non-annotated datasets, which can then be searched by biologists for candidate compounds and by other IMS users for dataset comparison and cross species/phenotype correlations. A central online repository will also allow for assessment of published data quality and communal annotation of data sets.
