Hi Steve,

Wouldn't a basic (and much needed) use case simply be discovery?

It's great to have this metadata (as Morphbank showed/shows) for being able to find images that have certain features / attributes in common.

Say, I'd like to use AI to compare wing venation, or AI to compare variation in head shape for a particular group. Being able to search by subjectPart and subjectOrientation allows me to find images of interest much more efficiently.

One bit that strikes me is that to do this we also need to know what taxonomic group the images are from. Hopefully, this is shared either in AC, or in the accompanying DwC Occurrence file in the higher classification fields...

Deb PS Shall I add this use case to your list using your form? Or do you feel it's sufficiently covered in what you have already? I would add that we (at iDigBio) often get very little media metadata -- it makes discovery of relevant objects extremely difficult.

Because some members of the community only found out at the TDWG annual meeting about the request for use cases for the ac:subjectPart and ac:subjectOrientation controlled vocabularies, we've extended the deadline for submissions to December 1. For links to examples and the use case submission forms, see the Task Group home page at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/tdwg/ac/tree/master/views__;!... .
