The Thesaurus Project of the Geological Survey of Austria attempts the task of the construction of a controlled vocabulary for the semantic harmonisation of map-based geodata. The content-related realization of this project is governed by the Thesaurus Editorial Team, which consists of thematic experts from the Geological Survey of Austria. Currently there are 4 thematic thesauri available which reflect the basic information of geological maps: lithology, geologic timescale, geologic and tectonic units. All thesauri are available in both German and English* via an open web-application and standardised service interface.

The thesaurus provides vocabulary on any economic subject: more than 6,000 standardized subject headings and about 19,000 entry terms to support individual keywords. You can also find technical terms used in law, sociology, or politics, and geographic names. When selecting terms from this vocabulary, you are sure to get results matching your search query.

PoolParty is a thesaurus management system and a SKOS editor for the Semantic Web including text mining and linked data capabilities. The system helps to build and maintain multilingual thesauri providing an easy-to-use interface. PoolParty server provides semantic services which can be used to integrate semantic search or recommender systems into systems like CMS, DMS, CRM or Wikis.

"SKOSEd is a plugin for Protege that allows you to create and edit thesauri (or similar artefacts) represented in the Simple Knowledge Organisation System (SKOS)."
