This page describes the assays and data levels for the HTAN imaging data model.
The HTAN imaging data model captures attributes from all HTAN experiments for which imaging data is generated, including:
The HTAN data model currently supports Level 2 image data:
Level Number Definition | Allowed file types |
---|---|
2 | Pre-processed image data OME-TIFF* |
* OME-TIFF files are required to contain image pyramids (unless the full image is relatively small, or a pyramid representation is not appropriate, for example for a segmentation mask), conforming to BioFormats 6.0.0 (or later), with compression strongly suggested.
Metadata elements have been collected from the OME-XML metadata standard, as well as the extension proposed by the 4D Nucleosome Imaging Standards Working Group, which divides fluorescence microscopy data provenance metadata into categories:
