This is an interesting perspective! Ultimately, the correct individual was placed in the #1 spot. The pain point for you is that this image isn’t a good visual representation of 258 while MiewID determined that given the source image and its heat map visualization of matching hot spots, it was the best match image available. I don’t know that it’s technically problem because on one hand, I see it as an example of the different ways humans and algorithms identify the same individuals. But if it’s creating uncertainty in confirming matches, it’s worth looking into how we can reduce that friction for you.
I’m pretty certain the images displayed here are from the first handful of Encounters of the individual so the can’t currently be set manually. I think this ties in with your next post, since the goal is to make it easier to explore images of the candidate to validate the match:
Yes, please. I think we ultimately have 3 separate requests here:
- View additional images of a match candidate from within the current match results page/be presented with the best possible candidate images on the match page
- Be able to set the best representative image of an individual on their Marked Individual page.
- Zoom in further on match candidate images (similar to, but not quite the same as Add a 'zoom in on photo' feature on matching panel)
Does that sound accurate?
