TerminologyConsolidator Process overview
Read input
Define a target termbase structure fitting customer requirements
Heterogeneous content is prepared to fit termbase structure
Import function validates input data and rejects invalid data formats
Process data
Find inconsistencies through cross-referencing entries on the basis of attributes on term, language and concept level
Add concept- and term-level attributes on the fly with instantaneous conflict recalculation
View each conflict and with highlights of similarities pointing at probable discrepancies
Write Output
View number of discrepancies to allow estimation of (remaining) required consolidation effort
Export processed entries in specified formats for further use
