# Blue Locate Tool – Apply Feature Label Graphics – Tips and Shortcuts

There are a couple of different methods to speed up the labeling process of the Blue Locate tool.

Note:

- In addition to the following tips, consider using the bootstrap method of labeling your images. "Bootstrap" labeling refers to the process of beginning your labeling process by just labeling a small sample size of your images, then training the tool, and reviewing the results by accepting views with correct markings to convert them into labels, and removing incorrect markings and replacing them with correct labels. You can speed up this process further by dividing images into multiple views and only labeling a single view. In addition, you can also temporarily reduce the Epoch Count parameter (one of the ), which will make the training time shorter.

- If your application contains rotated features, teach the Blue Locate tool to properly handle rotation.

  - Enable the Oriented parameter (see the Set a Feature Label Graphic to Oriented topic for more information).
  - Make sure that all of the various rotation variances are accurately labled.
