For my work I need to add a terminology (a local company owned terminology) for the binding section to the archetype-editor, is that possible?

Thanks in advance for reply

Happy new year Bert,

Are you using the open source Archetype Editor? What I mean is, the one that can be downloaded here:

http://openehr.org/downloads/archetypeeditor/home

The names of the terminologies that are available are defined by this file:

https://github.com/openEHR/arch_ed-dotnet/blob/master/ArchetypeEditor/Terminology/terminology.xml

For example:

You could add the name of another terminology to that file, possibly just within your local installation of the Archetype Editor. But that wouldn’t give you the actual terminology contents. Is that what you are looking for?

On the other hand, if you have a release of the Archetype Editor from Ocean Informatics, then it can connect to an instance of the Ocean Terminology Service (OTS). This (apart from branding) is the difference between the openEHR and Ocean releases of the Archetype Editor. The terminology would have to be imported into that instance of OTS, which is not a simple task to do; and although I don’t know what the situation is these days, in the past it would have meant purchasing a licence from Ocean Informatics.

Hope that helps,
Peter
