    Hello,

    I have an internet based search interface for grammatically annotated
    corpora at http://corp.hum.sdu.dk, covering Germanic (en, de, da) and
    Romance languages (pt, es, fr, eo). The Portuguese Público corpus (from
    Linguateca) has been experimentally PALAVRAS-annotated with NE tags, on
    top of PoS and syntax. For the time being though, only the latter can be
    searched through a menu - NE tags have to be written in the 'extra'
    field, or cqp-style: [extra="civ"], making them accessible only to
    people who know they are there ... Maybe [extra="civ" & pos="PROP"],
    since nouns (N) have semantic categories, too. There is also a
    flash-film showing how to use the interface - as well as, of course,
    cqp-documentation on the internet.

    The major categories are:

    hum = person names
    org = organisation names
    top = natural place names
    occ = event, occasion
    title = work of art
    brand = brand names, things

    and the hybrid categories:

    civ = civitas (countries, towns etc.): +HUM, +LOC
    media = newspapers etc.: +org, +title

    Some articles on Danish and Portuguese NE are listed and/or available at
    http://beta.visl.sdu.dk/~eckhard/Artikeloversigt.html. Hope it's useful!
