'''Open Food Facts''' uses multiple '''taxonomies''' for its inner workings. These taxonomies run from simple word lists with their translations, to complex hierarchies with relations between entries and attributes. The taxonomies are used to analyse and structure the information found on products.
'''Open Food Facts''' uses multiple '''taxonomies''' for its inner workings. These taxonomies run from simple word lists with their translations, to complex hierarchies with relations between entries and attributes. The taxonomies are used to analyse and structure the information found on products.
This page gives an overview of the taxonomies and some guiding principles that are valid for all taxonomies.
The [[Languages taxonomy]] for instance lists the most important languages in the world, translated into these languages. The [[Ingredients taxonomy]] lists all the ingredients that OFF has discovered on food products.
This page gives an overview of the taxonomies and some guiding principles that are valid for all taxonomies. For each specific taxonomy there is a specific wikipage.
