RESUMO
The types of gene mapping data and its organization in the Genome Data Base (GDB) recently established at Johns Hopkins Medical School are described. The database provides a continuous online environment for data perusal and editing and is used as the informatics core for running the human gene mapping workshops. Current development is primarily concentrated on extending the types of map object, means of defining map location, map storage and representation. Experimental data structures have been created that permit storage of any type of map information, physical or genetic.
