Incubator Group Report: Image Annotation

   The Multimedia Semantics Incubator Group published their report on
   Image Annotation on the Semantic Web. The report describes the use
   of RDF and OWL to create, store, exchange and process information
   about images. The previously published Multimedia Vocabularies on
   the Semantic Web discusses a number of individual vocabularies that
   are relevant for image annotation. Both publications are part of the
   Incubator Activity, a forum where W3C Members can innovate and
   experiment.
