There are multiple GATE products but the most fitting seems to be GATE Teamware,

a collaborative annotation environment for high volume factory-style semantic annotation projects built around a workflow engine and the GATE cloud backend web services

Most relevant parts of the Introduction:

Semantic Annotation (SA) is about attaching meaningful structures to resources like documents or video streams in such a way that they can be used by computers to enhance the usefulness of those resources.

SA is not new: when a BBC archivist, for example, attaches thesaurus categories to programme segments for indexing they have > performed semantic annotation. SA technology has changed, however, in two main ways:

  • the invention of Information Extraction in the 1990s has made automatic SA more possible
  • recent research around the Semantic Web has shown how SA can be used for scaleable conceptual search and navigation products in specific domains The requisite annotation can be done manually, and this works well in cases like flikr and delicio.us where the annotators benefit directly from their own work (creating their own "folksonomies"). In other cases, where the task is simple and the domain of application specific, automatic annotation can work to an acceptable accuracy level [...] Where neither of these things is true what is needed is an Annotation Factory [...] GATE Teamware is a software suite and methodology for implementing annotation factories

In our case, the annotation can be done manually and is not simple, so GATE is not the right tool for our purpose.
