Additional Notes

This page provides a glossary of the terms used in the Lorneshove service, along with supplementary notes on interface conventions and the concepts that underpin the classification system.

Terminology

Key terms used in this service

The following glossary explains the concepts and labels used throughout the Lorneshove interface and supporting documentation. Understanding these terms makes it easier to interpret the information the service presents.

  • Classification

    The process by which the service assigns a category label to a piece of content. Classification is applied automatically and indicates the primary subject or type of the item. A single item may carry more than one classification label where its content spans multiple areas.

  • Category hierarchy

    The structured arrangement of categories used to organise content within the service. The hierarchy moves from broad, general groupings at the top level to more specific subcategories. Users can navigate the hierarchy to narrow or broaden the set of items they are reviewing.

  • Content item

    An individual piece of information that has been processed and made available within the service. A content item has its own classification, metadata, and potentially a set of relationships to other items. The term is used to avoid implying a specific file format or document type.

  • Relationship

    A connection identified by the automated analysis between two or more content items. Relationships indicate that the items share a subject, reference each other, or are otherwise meaningfully connected. They are displayed in the structured content view alongside the primary classification information.

  • Access arrangement

    The specific configuration under which a user is permitted to use the service. The access arrangement defines which categories and features are available, whether the user can annotate or export content, and any other conditions that apply to their use.

  • Structured content view

    The layout in which individual content items are presented for review. It places the content alongside its classification label, associated metadata, and any identified relationships. The layout is consistent across all items in the service, regardless of their category.

  • Metadata

    Descriptive information about a content item that is stored alongside it, such as the date it was processed, the category it belongs to, and any relationship identifiers. Metadata is displayed in the structured content view to provide context for the item.

  • Activity log

    A record of the items a user has opened or interacted with during a session. The activity log is maintained to allow users to return to previously reviewed items without navigating the category hierarchy again from the start.

  • Review session

    The period during which a user is actively using the service. The boundaries of a review session may be defined technically by login and logout events, or functionally by the user's own work pattern. The term is used in the documentation to refer to a defined period of active use.

Orientation

What to expect in a first session

Users accessing Lorneshove for the first time often find it useful to understand what the initial experience will be like before they begin.

The category view

The service opens at the top level of the category hierarchy. At this level, users see the broad groupings that apply to the content available within their access arrangement. Selecting a category narrows the view to the items it contains.

Opening an item

Selecting an individual content item opens the structured content view. This displays the item's content alongside its classification label, metadata, and relationship indicators. Users can read the item in this view and navigate to related items from the relationship panel.

Using search and filter

The search function is available from any point in the interface. It searches across all content within the user's access scope. Filters can be applied to the results to narrow them by category, date, or other structural attributes.
