In order to obtain terminologies for use in a mapping project, you may need additional licenses and/or fees.

Converting Terminologies

The various map projects maintained with this tool so far have involved four different terminologies.  

  • SNOMED CT
  • ICD10
  • ICD9CM
  • ICPC

The admin tools support loaders based on RF2 or ClaML data.  This works well for terminologies natively represented in one of these formats, such as SNOMED CT in RF2 or ICD10 in ClaML.  For other terminologies, a converter must be used to get the native formats into one of the loader supported formats.  Conversion algorithms like these here have been used in the past for this:

 For details on handling other terminologies, see Custom Terminologies.

Loading Terminologies

Once terminologies are in a supported format, the appropriate admin tool loader can be used, see Terminology Loader and Remover.
