Taxonomy Management Tools - Mondeca

Terminology, Thesaurus, Taxonomy, Metadata dictionary and e-Catalog Management with the ITM Software tools

ITM T3 is a software tool for managing enterprise shareable multilingual domain-specific taxonomies, thesaurus, and terminologies. It can be used as a domain-specific vocabulary server for employees, customers, authors, and translators, but also as a service to enhance enterprise search engines, authoring tools, user guides, content indexation engines and text mining software.

A web based collaborative application, ITM is built on standards including XML, SKOS and RDF and web services.

ITM T3 has been adopted by a number of large international groups: Lafarge, Thomson Scientific, Wolters Kluwer Belgium, Lexis Nexis France, among others, to manage reference material.
