Dear Georg, we are working on an web based annotation tool, which allows working with CASes, for quite a long time now. We started to develop it within the THESEUS research programm and continually improving it. It enables you to manually add/remove annotations (given a specific type system) or using a deployed AS endpoint to process given texts with. Both ways - manual and automatic annotations - can get combined as well. A third way is a semi-automated approach, where you can select terms within your input text and the terminology browser in the right hand side window suggests corresponding concepts from a set of various terminologies, which you can assign to your text selection with one click. All annotation types, which can be used for manual annoation, are getting displayed via the "Annotate manually"-Button in the top bar. After selecting the corresponding part of your text you add the annotation by clicking the adequate annotation-button. The results can be stored as XMI.
You will find the current version at www.annotationeditor.de. Feel free to play around! There are much more things you currently can do with this tool. For instance, you can upload a CSV file containing unnormalized items and specifiy a UIMA AS endpoint those terms should be processed with. It then returns the CSV with the corresponding mappings. Without logging in, you can use a sample AS endpoint to process your data with (GuestEnglischMeSH). In principle, any AS endpoint can be communicated with. Unfortunatelly there is currently no user documentation, since everything is work in progress. If you have any questions, feel free to conatct us!
