Alternative file formats #881
Comments
A recent post of Josh Moore in image.sc on the status of NGFF |
So I have implemented a function to save snaps from the camera views as a zarr file. So far contains no metadata as I couldn't work out how we were meant to add it. However it does save the data into a zarr file which can then be loaded in napari via the open folder menu item. Code is in my zarr-snap-save branch at the moment. I will research the metadata to see how to get that stored with the file. |
The OME metadata is stored as a ome.xml file in the group level |
I asked on image.sc (thread at https://forum.image.sc/t/microscopy-metadata-in-zarr-files/87399) and was pointed at: ome/ngff#104 and https://github.com/tlambert03/ome-types I plan to explore the python libraray and try to get as much metadata as we can into the ome-xml format for storage into the zarr. |
Cockoit only currently deals with .dv files, pretty obscure. We should consider alternative file formats, the most promising I think is the ngff which has a python library implementation and will store the relevant metadata.
This should be linked up with the expansion of metadata in non-experiment image files, like snaps or mosaic images. This is an ongoing effort see issues #676 and #391.
