Tesauros e Información Audiovisual. Estudio de caso

Abstract

A study about the design, construction and working of a thesaurus is presented in an audiovisual context. Firstly, the keywords, a very important part of the thesaurus, are analysed in order to study standards and connotation. Secondly, hierarchical and associative relationships are explained in relation to their diversity and their ability to improve the global estructure in the thesaurus. Thirdly, the conceptual framework of the thesaurus is also analysed. The aim is to overcome thematic categorisation in favour of other textual models. In reality, this project is realized both from a traditional perspective and from new perspectives that try to be objective and to improve processes and methods related to this domain. Finally, different phases in the work are reviewed.
