Corpus Legis

The Corpus Legis project was commenced in response to established needs for improved legal information retrieval methods and enhanced support for legal investigations of different subject matters. Other significant factors included the rapid growth of legal information, its internationalisation and the general need for European harmonisation as a result of European Community Law. Questions of legal document management have been investigated in this project by means of the international document representation standard SGML – Standard Generalized Markup Language. The main part of the analysed text corpus focused on documents reflecting the system for lawmaking, e.g. government bills and laws. More information.
