Taxonomy Essentials for DAM

29 June, 12:10 PM

This workshop will take you through all the steps needed to begin identifying and developing your DAM classifications.

Taxonomy in DAM systems is an essential part of asset management. It organises, classifies and unifies the ways assets are described. Without it, you have a very expensive closet where assets are lost and unusable, and accurate reporting is made impossible. 

Filled with exercises and hands-on involvement, this session, led by Madi Weland Solomon, will introduce the basics of taxonomy development for DAM and guide you through understanding the theoretical guidelines and standards in a fun way that will leave you thinking like a taxonomist!

Great to be back in person at the HS DAM Europe 2022! Great opportunity to hear from peers in the industry and actually meet people again. Leaving with lots of areas to explore!

HS DAM events are an invaluable opportunity to meet a wide range of DAM practitioners, futurologists, and deep specialists. You'll find parallels in industries you know and new concepts from industries you don't, that will make you question and improve your practice.
