Abstract

Sensemaking is the process of analysing complex situations in order to make informed decisions. Semantic Web technology can be effectively used to create new sensemaking systems that focus on concepts and knowledge instead of documents. We demonstrate how this is achieved using information extraction to acquire knowledge and create a semantic repository that can then be semantically searched. A domain ontology is used to support the creation of an analysis tree; the semantic visualisation enables knowledge discovery, a core aspect of sensemaking.
