With its flexible design and representative array of terminological and linguistic features, OLIF can help the user address language data management needs ranging from basic terminology exchange to managing lexicons for natural language processing (NLP) systems, such as machine translation.

How was OLIF designed? Who supports OLIF?
OLIF was designed by members of the OLIF Consortium, an organization of major NLP technology suppliers, corporate users of NLP, and research institutions. Headed by SAP, the OLIF Consortium designed and released the official version 2 of OLIF and provides support for its implementation by users worldwide.
