HuBMAP Data Upload Guidelines

Well-defined schemas ensure that HuBMAP data and metadata are reusable. If you are starting work on a new assay type, review the guidelines for directory schemas. If you have an upload prepared, it can be validated with validate_upload.py, or if you only have an individual TSV, use validate_tsv.py. Examples of both good and bad uploads, and the validation messages they produce, are available.
