ScioTR is a new touch-enabled Windows 8 app which integrates Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Natural Language Parsing (NLP), Model Strategies and crowdsourcing to provide an efficent workflow for capturing highly-structured data from images. The workflow illustrates how to leverage the strengths of individual technologies while simultaneously compensating for inherent weakness. Work is partitioned across temporal and skill-set boundaries and data is bi-directionally synchronized between different users.
