The Multimedia Description Standard MPEG-7 is an International Standard since February 2002. It defines a huge set of description classes for multimedia content, for its creation and its communication. This article investigates what MPEG-7 means to Multimedia Database Systems (MMDBSs) and vice versa. We argue that MPEG-7 has to be considered complementary to, rather than competing with, data models employed in MMDBSs. Finally we show by an example scenario how these technologies can reasonably complement one another.
