A widget for segmenting an image and assigning a label to each image segment.


The following attributes are supported by this element.


The text to display above the image. This is typically a question or simple instruction for the worker.


A JSON object containing the color mappings of a prior semantic segmentation job and a link to the overlay image output by the prior job. Include this when you want a human worker to verify the results of a prior labeling job and adjust it if necessary.

The attribute would appear as follows:

initial-value='{ "labelMappings": { "Bird": { "color": "#ff7f0e" }, "Cat": { "color": "#2ca02c" }, "Cow": { "color": "#d62728" }, "Dog": { "color": "#1f77b4" } }, "src": {{ "S3 file URL for image" | grant_read_access }} }'

While label mappings are included in individual worker output records, the overall result is represented as the internal-color-map in the consolidated results.

You can convert the internal-color-map to label-mappings in a custom template using the Liquid templating language:

initial-value="{ 'src' : '{{ task.input.manifestLine.label-attribute-name-from-prior-job| grant_read_access }}', 'labelMappings': { {% for box in task.input.manifestLine.label-attribute-name-from-prior-job-metadata.internal-color-map %} {% if box[1]['class-name'] != 'BACKGROUND' %} {{ box[1]['class-name'] | to_json }}: { 'color': {{ box[1]['hex-color'] | to_json }} }, {% endif %} {% endfor %} } }"


A JSON formatted array of strings, each of which is a label that a worker can assign to a segment of the image.


The name of this widget. It is used as a key for the widget's input in the form output.


The URL of the image that is to be segmented.

Element Hierarchy

This element has the following parent and child elements.


The following regions are supported by this element.


General instructions about how to do image segmentation.


Important task-specific instructions that are displayed in a prominent place.


The following output is supported by this element.


A JSON Object containing a Base64 encoded PNG of the labels.


A JSON Object containing objects with named with the segmentation labels.

  • color – The hexadecimal value of the label's RGB color in the labeledImage PNG.


A boolean representing whether the initial values have been modified. This is only included when the output is from an adjustment task.


A JSON object that specifies the dimensions of the image that is being annotated by the worker. This object contains the following properties.

  • height – The height, in pixels, of the image.

  • width – The width, in pixels, of the image.
