Work on key concepts of the Competition and Consumer Authority

Liiketoimintaontologia LIITO (Business ontology) includes some 3 000 concepts related to business and business services. The Finnish Terminology Centre TSK participated in the ontology project, which was carried out in 2009–2011.

The Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority (FCCA) intends to expand LIITO with concepts related to its operation. Together with experts from FCCA TSK shall produce definitions to the key concepts in data bank on the Consumer Ombudman’s decisions and also add certain concepts selected by FCCA into the ontology.

The work began in January 2017 and will be completed at the beginning of summer. The expanded version of LIITO ontology shall be published in the Finnish Thesaurus and Ontology Service Finto.
