Attributes

Attributes are properties that can be assigned to an entire track or a single detection within a track. Attributes are created by users utilizing the Settings panel in the main file browser location. New attributes can be added or existing ones can be modified.

Quick Demos

NOTE: Attributes are global on the server currently and can be seen or modified by anyone. There are future plans to move attributes to be specific to projects or users.

Adding/Editing Attributes

  1. On the main browser of VIAME go to the Settings tab
  2. Click on the "+" button to indicate that you want to add a new attribute.
  3. Provide a descriptive name for the attribute and then determine if it is going to be a track or detection attribute.
    1. Track Attributes - apply data to the entire track
    2. Detection Attributes - apply only to a specific detection on a track
  4. Next choose a datatype:
    1. Number
    2. Boolean - (True/False)
    3. Text
      1. Custom text that the user provides
      2. A predefined list of text that can be chosen from
  5. After choosing a Track/Detection and a Datatype click Add to add the attribute.
  6. Existing attributes will show up on the left side of the screen in a list.
