Morphology

intercoder = coder (transparent) = inter + coder

The agent noun 'coder' receives the prefix 'inter-' to indicate a coder involved in inter-coder comparison or coordination; this is a straightforward compositional formation.

Etymology

Intercoder comes from inter- ('between') and coder (a person or tool that codes or labels data). So an intercoder is a person or tool that works alongside others to compare coding results and make sure they agree.
