<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I’ve started trying to read about 8D OME storage (</span><a href="https://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/ome-model/developers/6d-7d-and-8d-storage.html"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">https://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/ome-model/developers/6d-7d-and-8d-storage.html</span></a><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">
), but I think I need to become a little more familiar with OME to know which option will map best to our data.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I can certainly help shed some light on number 2 though. A lot of the metadata included within the file is to do with how the data should be read in, parsed,
processed etc. and can be handled by my library/the bio-formats reader and isn’t necessary for the end user to see.
</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">The remaining metadata helps to describe the experiment (ideally in sufficient detail that it could be repeated) and it would be useful to be able to view/query
this, but that isn’t necessarily a priority. All of the metadata can be boiled down to (tag, value) pairs, where there are very few *<b>required</b>* tags, and the majority are optional descriptors organised in a hierarchy (</span><a href="http://www.peptideatlas.org/tmp/mzML1.1.0.html"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">http://www.peptideatlas.org/tmp/mzML1.1.0.html</span></a><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">
). Is there an equivalent of the Bio-Formats reader for metadata? How is metadata typically stored for other formats?

should be able to just call the appropriate methods in that. How would be the best way to go about writing a Bio-Formats reader? Can anyone contribute to the Bio-Formats project?</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

to FLIMfit somehow, or should that be displaying the full raw spectral dimension? From your experience, how difficult was it to adapt your tools to be OMERO clients?</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
