Abstract | Allergy is a major health issue in our society in terms of care and prevention. Several actors play a role in dealing with such condition, including health professionals, public authorities, and patients. The information that is useful to them is abundant and heterogeneous. Healthcare providers from the Allergy Unit of the University Hospital of Montpellier (France) need to access this information to analyse and identify trends in allergic diseases. However, the heterogeneous nature of the information makes this work complex. Such heterogeneity concerns the form but also the level of speech and the terminology used. Identification of knowledge in the field and its organization is therefore crucial to propose adapted devices, which allow to analyze this information, to share it between specialists and to consider a mediation towards non-specialized actors, including patients. The aim of our lecture is therefore to present the ALLERGIDOC interdisciplinary project, which involves the specialists in fields of medicine, epidemiology, engineering, and information and communication science. Such project consists on the study and organization of available Allergy-related information and data. In our communication, we will focus mainly on the considered methodology for the development of a knowledge organization model in this domain. Constructive feedback from the ISKO community and some advice on how to develop the project will be more than welcome.
