MEDDOPLACE Guidelines (Spanish): Annotation, Normalization and Classification of Locations and Related-Information in Medical Documents

MEDDOPLACE stands for MEDical DOcument PLAce-related Content Extraction. It is a shared task and set of resources focused on the detection, normalization (entity linking/toponym resolution) and classification of different kinds of places, as well as related types of information such as clinical departments, nationalities or patient movements, in medical documents in Spanish. This repository includes the Annotation Guidelines in Spanish, a 60+ pages-long document that describes how to annotate, normalize and characterize locations and related-information in medical documents. MEDDOPLACE was developed by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center's NLP for Biomedical Information Analysis and used as part of IberLEF 2023.
