The use of computational tools for lexicographical work in the creation of specialty dictionaries is undeniable. The process starts from the design and constitution of the specialty corpus, through the extraction of terms, to the automated extraction of definitions, which is a work of computational lexicography. This paper sketches in first place the elements to be considered in specialty corpus constitution. Subsequently the GECO system is described, a manager to upload the corpus, as well as the system applications for dictionaries construction such as the automatic term extractor, the concordances viewer and the definitional contexts extractor. This approach shows an effective solution to the problems in the process of choosing terms and extracting definitions from a large corpus, which significantly reduces the processing time of the data obtained in order to improve the creation of a specialized dictionary.
