Happy New Year to you as well Alan.

</div>
<div class="">If you log in again now and change group to “Experimental Formats” you should hopefully be able to see some data under “Mass spec proof of concept/MouseCerebellum”.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If this file format were to be supported in OME the first step would be to write a Bio-Formats reader. </div>
<div class="">In order to give a flavour of what that might look like I have attempted to extract the data (N.B. not metadata) from your file and write it into OME-TIFF files for which a reader already exists.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The first file there “MouseCerebellumC" - I have mapped your data into the 5D OME data model with m/z as channels , which seemed to me most appropriate.</div>
<div class="">Unfortunately this image is not easy to view using the standard OMERO clients which, for historical reasons, interpret large numbers of channels as time. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">From our earlier discussions, however it seemed likely that you would want a spectrum oriented view so in the second file “MouseCerebellumT” I’ve stored the data as if it were FLIM data with m/z mapped to time(t).</div>
<div class="">This will allow you examine the data using the FLIMfit tool <a href="http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/flimfit/4.9.1/" class="">http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/flimfit/4.9.1/</a></div>
<div class="">Frustratingly, you cannot, I’m afraid, log on to the demo server directly from FLIMfit as a version compatible with OMERO 5.2 has not yet been released so it will be necessary to download the file as described in <a href="http://help.openmicroscopy.org/export.html#download" class="">http://help.openmicroscopy.org/export.html#download</a> and
open locally.</div>
<div class="">N.B. you will need to change the background from the default value of 200 to 0.</div>
<div class="">The screenshot illustrates what I see when I do this.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Obviously I’m not suggesting that FLIMfit is appropriate for your data, but attempting to illustrate how it might look if you were to adapt your existing tools to be OMERO clients.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I hope all that makes sense.</div>

<div class="">Best Regards</div>
