Michel has put some effort (for which I’m very grateful) into importing from the English Local Government Association’s standard lists (taxonomies):
- the hierarchical Needs list
- the Community Service Types list
and mappings between them.
You can see this here in InfoLoom.
I’ve recorded this Loom video (Loom video has no relation to InfoLoom) showing the result and making a few comments.
My general conclusions are:
- with a little investment this could be a good generic tool for maintaining taxonomies and links between them
- some UX work would be needed if InfoLoom is to be used to explore taxonomies
- I would like a numeric identifier to be separate from the preferred label rather than have both treated as labels which are synonyms of one another
