<br>
Sorry .. previous post was strangely html-formatted ... this one should be readable:<br>
<br>
I am struggeling a bit with understanding the various ways of OMERO import. Maybe someone can clarify:<br>
<br>
We want to implement a workflow for importing image data (mostly from Nikon instruments) into OMERO (5.x) using the in-place import functionality. Copy/Transfer of the data is no option due to the sheer amount of data.<br>
The storage volume where the data sits is a network drive mounted to the OMERO.server (> 100 TB, likely to be extended soon).<br>
<br>
Now: is there any existing solution that allows batch import and/or GUI-based import with „in-place“ import? Command-line operation is not acceptable by the user.<br>
Does Smuggler do „in-place“ import too? (couldn’t find any comment on this on the smuggler description page)<br>
Anyone out there who has built something on Atom (<a href="https://www.medfloss.org/node/695[https://deref-web-02.de/mail/client/e4_FB63n2yQ/dereferrer/?redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.medfloss.org%2Fnode%2F695]" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.medfloss.org/<wbr>node/695[https://deref-web-02.<wbr>de/mail/client/e4_FB63n2yQ/<wbr>dereferrer/?redirectUrl=https%<wbr>3A%2F%2Fwww.medfloss.org%<wbr>2Fnode%2F695]</a>) to make it work with OMERO 5.x and extend to „in-place“?<br>
<br>
As a starting point, I would like to get an overview on what is already available. (—> Is <a href="https://www.openmicroscopy.org/omero/import/[https://deref-web-02.de/mail/client/GduavfPOucg/dereferrer/?redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.openmicroscopy.org%2Fomero%2Fimport%2F]" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.openmicroscopy.<wbr>org/omero/import/[https://<wbr>deref-web-02.de/mail/client/<wbr>GduavfPOucg/dereferrer/?<wbr>redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.<wbr>openmicroscopy.org%2Fomero%<wbr>2Fimport%2F]</a> a comprehensive list?) <br>
<br>
Thanks a lot!<br>
