This document discusses how vocabularies, taxonomies, thesauri, and ontologies can help organize information by providing standardized, controlled terms. It defines each type of terminology structure and provides examples. Vocabularies are lists of agreed-upon terms, while taxonomies add hierarchical relationships. Thesauri further add cross-references and relationship information. Ontologies specify additional precise relationships between different types of entities. Together, these structured vocabularies can help disambiguate terms, provide access points, and clarify relationships to make sense of varied language and terminology.
