Annotation
An annotation is a note, comment, or explanation added to a text, image, or data. It makes notes clearer, provides context, and offers insight. It’s like a helpful note in the margins. It points out key details, guiding readers and adding deeper meaning.
While the basic idea of an annotation stays the same across industries, it can look different depending on the field. For example:
- Regulatory Compliance: Annotations highlight necessary changes, risks, or compliance issues in documents.
- Software and Code: Developers use annotations to explain how code works, mark tasks, or clarify logic.
- AI and Data Science: Annotations label data to help train machine-learning models and improve accuracy.
No matter the industry, annotations help turn raw information into something clear, smart, and more useful.
