Short answer
You can create a Semantic Map offline by downloading an Excel template, filling it with your categories and terms, and uploading it back into AskTuring. Categories can be defined either before or after you upload the Excel file.
Full explanation
A Semantic Map organizes the key terms in your Index into Categories (typically 4–10) that help AskTuring deliver more accurate search results. One category should always act as a “catch-all,” such as General Terms.
To create your Semantic Map using Excel:
Go to the Semantic Map tab for your Index.
Download the Excel template.
Add your Categories and the associated terms under each one.
Save the file.
Upload it back into AskTuring.
You can define Categories in advance within AskTuring, or create them directly in the Excel sheet and let the system recognize them when you upload it.
Tip
Semantic Mapping uses AskTuring’s patented technology to improve both search accuracy and document understanding.
