HITO contains data on concepts that can be used to describe software products (e.g., application system types, functions, roles, outcome criteria, …). You can find these concepts on the diagram. For a given concept, its datasets describe instances of this concept. For some concepts, such as "roles" (in the diagram as "UserGroup"), different terms are available. There are colloquial terms ("folks's terms", highlighted green) and terms from terminologies ("terminology items"), which are also related to each other. In HITO, for example, the colloquial term "Laboratory Manager" has a classifying relationship with the term "Laboratory technician occupation". The term "Laboratory technician occupation" can be related to other colloquial terms. The term "Laboratory technician occupation" is taken from the terminology "SNOMED CT User Group Catalogue"; this terminology is an instance of the term "terminologies".

Moreover, HITO contains further relationships between concepts, such as the relationship "evaluates" between the concepts "study" and "software product". One instance of this relationship describes, for example, that the study entitled "The Influence that Electronic Prescribing ..." evalutes the software product "Medicator".
