CABI chooses TEMIS for content enrichment

TEMIS has signed a strategic agreement with CABI, an inter-governmental, not–for–profit organisation providing information and applying scientific expertise to solve problems in agriculture and the environment.

The agreement promises to help CABI optimise its content indexing, which was previously primarily manual, by integrating TEMIS’s Luxid Content Enrichment Platform in its content management workflow.

CABI’s first objective is to make efficiency gains through automation and reduce indexing costs associated with the increase of content volumes while ensuring high levels of metadata quality. The rich semantic metadata extracted from its content should enable more sophisticated search, navigation and discovery tools on CABI’s online portals, promoting greater user engagement. Luxid’s semantic enrichment pipeline will also enable the extraction from text of structured information as well as semantic relationships, so that CABI can create linked data products connected to the larger Web of Data.

‘This will allow us to improve existing products, but more importantly to create new value from the rapidly growing content assets within our portfolio. We see this as a major step towards achieving our goal to be the world’s leading source of knowledge and insights in agriculture and related disciplines,’ explained Andrea Powell, executive director, publishing at CABI.
