+# Dataset Card for TreeOfLife-10M Vector database
+
+Persistent files for vector Database created with [chromadb](https://docs.trychroma.com/docs/overview/introduction) 
+containing the embeddings for all images in the [imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M) dataset.

+### Dataset Description
+
+- **Curated by:** list curators (authors for _data_ citation, moved up)
+- **Language(s) (NLP):** [More Information Needed]
+<!-- Provide the basic links for the dataset. These will show up on the sidebar to the right of your dataset card ("Curated by" too). -->
+- **Homepage:** https://imageomics.github.io/
+- **Repository:** [imageonomics/bioclip-vector-db](https://github.com/Imageomics/bioclip-vector-db)
+- **Paper:** 
+
+
+<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this dataset is. -->

+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+
+
+### Data Fields
+[More Information Needed]
+<!--
+Describe the types of the data files or the columns in a CSV with metadata.
+
+Ex: 
+**metadata.csv**:
+  - `img_id`: Unique identifier for the dataset. 
+  - `specimen_id`: ID of specimen in the image, provided by museum data source. There are multiple images of a single specimen.
+  - `species`: Species of the specimen in the image. There are N different species of <genus> of <animal>.
+  - `view`: View of the specimen in the image (e.g., `ventral` or `dorsal` OR `top` or `bottom`, etc.; specify options where reasonable).
+  - `file_name`: Relative path to image from the root of the directory (`<species>/<img_id>.png`); allows for image to be displayed in the dataset viewer alongside its associated metadata.
+-->
+
+
+## Dataset Creation
+
+
+### Source Data
+
+[imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M) dataset was used as the source to generate all the embeddings in the vector database. 
+
+
+
+#### Who are the source data producers?
+[More Information Needed]
+<!-- This section describes the people or systems who originally created the data.
+
+Ex: This dataset is a collection of images taken of the butterfly collection housed at the Ohio State University Museum of Biological Diversity. The associated labels and metadata are the information provided with the collection from biologists that study butterflies and supplied the specimens to the museum.
