Measuring the impact of the Bioregistry

The Bioregistry is a database and toolchain for standardization of prefixes, CURIEs, and URIs that appear in linked (open) data. While I created it in 2019 as a component of PyOBO in order to support parsing database cross-references appearing in biomedical ontologies, it has since become an independent project with a community-driven governance model and much broader applications. This post is a first attempt to quantify its usage and impact.
