Hi,

The Visual Thesaurus for Indian languages will be interactive
dictionary and thesaurus that will allows users to
search for a specific word, and in return, presents them with a
semantic map representation of the meaning relationships that exist
between the searched word and other words. It provides
user-controlled, interactive context that facilitates language and
vocabulary learning through a constructivist model.It will be unique
and attractive visualization of word map and it increases the learning
thrust.It is targeted to one and all who want to replace an idea with
a word and also to those who want to explore and learn language.

I got the software idea . But where is the data availability?  . AFAIK  such free licensed thesaurus data sets does  .  If you know any such free licensed thesaurus please point that . There is no point in developing something without data availability .
