Victoria Yturralde,You can do Boolean logic searches on the native image formats with the ObjectStore Database and Virage Image Object Manager. The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute is designing just that type of application from over 10,000 hours of video tape and still images as we speak. I'd be happy to discuss the details if you are interested.
