Description
Digital assets present special challenges when it comes to tagging, metadata and taxonomies. Unlike text assets, there are no clues from which to derive context - the "is-ness" and "about-ness" of the asset.
There is also the challenge of subjectivity. An image has specific meaning to individuals based on their experience, mindset and expectations. Different people will describe assets in different ways.
In this session, we'll show how assets can be tagged effectively with metadata defined with reuse in mind. We'll review case study examples to illustrate how faceted search can be supported by well constructed taxonomies and how users need to be trained to tag and to retrieve images based on the taxonomy.
