<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Veronique,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>We would like to be able to import all this metadata if
possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>However, it is quite tricky to map the data in the LIF file
to our OME data model. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>For example, in a sample LIF file I'm looking at (with
ImageJ and BioFormats plugin), there appears to be only 1 pin-hole size,
whereas our model requires a pin-hole size for each channel. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>One problem we have is that we don't know how the LIF files
are read and displayed by the Leica software. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>(Do you know of any LIF viewing software that is available
to download?)<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>You could help us a lot by sending us any sample LIF files
you have, together with a list of all the metadata you want to view from the
files. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Alternatively, if you could also take a screen-shot of what
the files look like, and what metadata is displayed in the Leica software, that
would allow us to work out how to read this metadata from the file. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you want details of how to upload sample files to our
image repository, please e-mail melissa <a

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hello,<br>
<br>
We are importing LIF files in Omero 4.0.3 : it would be very useful to have
original metadata (Laser wavelength, Pinhole, PMT, SP Mirror Channel, ...)
available in Insight. <br>
Is it planned to import these informations in Omero?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
