# identifier

Classification label identifying the type of observation.

```
var identifier: String { get }
```

## Discussion

An example classification could be a string like `cat` or `hotdog`.  The model used for the classification defines the domain of strings that may result.  Usually, these strings are unlocalized technical labels not meant for direct presentation to the end user.
