GIAnT - Graphical Image Annotation Tool

.. image:: sources/images/logo.png

GIAnT is an open source cross platform desktop application designed to aid scientists with graphical image annotation in the process of creating a corpus.

If you have a set of images, want to make annotations or even analyze how utters interact with each other this application might be useful for your project.

We built it for analyzing graffiti in Rome. Never the less the application is designed to be adapted for other studies.
