How to provide semantic capability to support the Australian population in their time of need?
Find out how Healthdirect Australia makes use of semantic technologies to improve findability on its information portal.
Main challenges:
- multiple websites that draw their content from multiple sources and are published across multiple devices.
- the "healthcare" domain is a confusing topic for many, filled with Latin names for diseases and industry jargon making it difficult for people to access and understand information
- accurate, automatic content classification
- support the publishing workflow for both edited and harvested/ingested/syndicated content
