Use cases

Roles: project manager, annotator

If you do not have a use case yet, you see the Create your first use case screen when you start PhariaCatch. Click Get started and follow the instructions to create a new use case.

If your use case contains projects, you see the Your projects page that shows all the projects in the selected use case. See Viewing your use cases.

Viewing your use cases​

Role: project manager

The Use Cases page displays an overview of all the use cases you are assigned to. The page shows basic information for each use case:

PhariaCatch Use Cases overview page

Each use case tile indicates the following:

  • the use case name and description
  • the number of projects contained in the use case
  • the number of datasets resulting from the use case's projects
  • the use case progress expressed as the number of tasks completed over all tasks defined

To see the projects belonging to a use case, click its tile. Project managers do this to manage their projects, whereas annotators do this to access their tasks.

Project managers can create new use cases, as well as edit and delete existing ones.
