Benefits of Using Classification Schemes
Using one or more classification schemes for the classification of a collection of objects has many benefits. Some of these include:
- It allows a user to find an individual object quickly on the basis of its kind or group.
- It makes it easier to detect duplicate objects.
- It conveys semantics (meaning) of an object from the definition of its kind, which meaning is not conveyed by the name of the individual object or its way of spelling.
- Knowledge and requirements about a kind of thing can be applied to the members of the kind.
