| Abstract: | At the April 2002 CENDI meeting, Ms. Finch explained that the Agricultural Thesaurus has 17 high level categories and has been integrated into searching. The Thesaurus can be used to automatically search for a preferred term when the user enters a non-preferred term; or can be used to include narrower terms in a search; or can assist in resolving ambiguous terms. The thesaurus was funded by the Agricultural Research Service and is being investigated as a possible web service. It is currently used as a controlled vocabulary by AGNIC and is also used by National Program Staff at ARS for hierarchy and lead-in terms to enhance searching of their web site. |
