Curator Web Annotation Service

Two separate possibilities exist for how large amounts of data processed through the Curator might be made available to the larger NLP community. We would need:

For pre-processed annotations upon request:

• A dynamic web page interface cataloging all annotations presently available for download. (In PHP?)
• A way to get specific Records from the Master Curator's database.

For user-submitted data returned with annotations:

• A separate downloadable reader, easily configurable by the user to parse documents into Thrift-serializable text files.
• A simple web page interface, implemented in PHP, which permits the user to upload a tarball of properly read document records.
• A message sent to the Master Curator telling it to launch a MapReduce job(s) via shell scripts.
