Management of Publication Taxonomies for faceted search

In addition to the publication of well-indexed and organised content, the user must be offered the means to navigate and select the content and knowledge suited to his/her needs and to the published content. The ontology content is in general too extensive and detailed to be used directly as a navigation and search tool. The navigation and search tools must be designed specifically for each editorial product and generated as automatically as possible.

ITM offers solutions for:

• Managing navigation taxonomies suited to each web publication
• Provide faceted search on the web site

Each product published on the web requires filtering and navigation tools suited to the editorial line, content and target users. The navigation taxonomies enabling navigation and filtering of information according to numerous strands are indispensable for any product with a rich content.

ITM enables navigation taxonomies to be constructed and maintained for each product by responding to the editorial requirements and using classification taxonomies. The aim of this is to construct simple navigation taxonomies that are suited to the target by hiding the details of classification taxonomies for content with too much detail, which are designed for annotating content rather than for end users.

• Increased productivity and quality
• Constructing navigation taxonomies based on existing content classification but suited to the products
• Automatically supplying navigation taxonomies and request rules to search engines or portals
• Adapting to the requirements of the various target customers without modifying the content indexing
