Abstract
Electronic form generation techniques are disclosed which automatically generate an electronic form based on a paper form by semantically mapping form fields. An example method may include identifying a data field in a paper form, extracting a semantic meaning of the data field, searching multiple data elements to identify a data element that semantically matches the data field, and, responsive to identifying a semantically matching data element, generating a data field in the electronic form based on the semantically matched data element and the associated one or more digital data capture constructs. Each data element may have associated therewith one or more digital data capture constructs. The generated data field in the electronic form corresponds to the data field in the paper form.
