Webinar: Semantic annotation of images in the FAIR data era
Channel: Ontologies In Agriculture
Date: 2019-09-10

Digital agriculture relies increasingly on the generation (from cellphone to drones and satellites) of large quantity of images. These images are processed with Machine Learning techniques to speed up the identification of objects, their classification, visualization and interpretation. However, images must comply with the FAIR principles to facilitate their access, reuse and interoperability. Ontologies, which are powerful tools for knowledge representation and reasoning, can effectively support image tagging for indexing, retrieval and content comparison.  

During this webinar you will learn about Image Annotation and the BISQUE project, and understand how ontologies can enhance image tagging to make them FAIR compliant. 

Speakers:
- Justin Preece, Senior Faculty Research Assistant at Oregon State University;
- Pier Luigi Buttigieg, Data scientist at the Alfred Wegener Institute.
