Hi @Zeemage Support,
Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum!
Azure Image Analysis provides tags for objects, animals, scenes, and actions in images, but these tags don’t follow a hierarchy. For example, you might see “deer” as a tag without also getting “animal” or “mammal.” Similarly, “car” might appear without “vehicle.”
If you need structured categories, Azure offers the Image Categorization feature. This uses a fixed hierarchy of 86 categories, which can help group images into broader, parent-child categories. However, this taxonomy is limited and may not cover all your needs.
Since tags don’t have built-in relationships, you can create your own hierarchy by mapping tags like “deer” to broader terms like “animal.” This custom mapping would help you maintain logical groupings for better accuracy and user actions.
For more details, refer to the Tagging Images and Image Categorization documentation.
I hope you understand! Thank you.
