This is a part of the Genoret project developped by WP4.

What is stored

One annotation is related to one or several images (or even something else). The images are referenced by local or foreign http links. These links are stored in the database and can be sorted manually. The display of the image is made through these links using the "show image" button. An annotation consists of several annotation fields :

For each annotation field are defined

  • a title
  • 2 or more radio buttons with exclusive choice
  • a keywords select field
  • a freecomment field

The labels of the radio buttons and keywords can be specific to each field.
