Download the Human Brain Atlas Ontology’s StructureGraph (StructureGraph id=10):

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/structure_graph_download/10.json

Parameters

filename Integer StructureGraph.id
file extension String .xml or .json format.

Returns

A hierarchical XML or JSON document containing each of the Structures in the requested StructureGraph with the following:

parent_id ID of the parent Structure.
children 1…n descendants of the Structure
