Stepping Up the Taxonomy Game
When we say taxonomy, we mean power: the power of organizing, the power of creating meaning, the power of dynamic content. Taxonomies are all about creating structures that tap into this vast potential, bringing data and information to life.
This year’s theme, From Potential to Powerhouse, is all about harnessing the power of taxonomies to generate value. For those starting from scratch, it’s about starting the process to create order from chaos. For those who already a taxonomy, it’s about unlocking the next level of benefits gained by increasing scope, implementing in new systems, or starting to move towards ontologies. Taxonomy Boot Camp 2017 is focused on stepping up the taxonomy game.
