[ome-devel] Opera Flex file lattest changes

[Balaji Ramalingam]

Hi,

The following page lists the supported metadata fields for the flex format,
http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/bio-formats4/formats/evotecperkinelmer-opera-flex-metadata.html

It would be great if you could upload a sample set (images from one or two wells) to ,
http://qa.openmicroscopy.org.uk/qa/upload/?

This will allow us to check the files locally and suggest suitable API calls.

Best,
Balaji

Subject: [ome-devel] Opera Flex file lattest changes

Hi everyone,

It has been a while since I last posted. I had a quick question, which Melissa can probably answer. The flex file form changed slightly in v2.0 of Evoshell. In particular the file structure. The microscope now generates the files as 1 file per field (as opposed to one file per image). As before the rest of the dimensions (ie. Z-stacks and channels) are encoded into the same file.

I was wondering how I could request the metadata for a full well in s ingle call? In particular I would like to make our webservice that retrieves the images compatible with the previous version with as little changes as possible. If there was a way to do things like:

1)      Get the number of fields for Well B01 (002001*)

2)      Get the image slice for WellB01 Channel2, Z-stack

That would be perfect.

Thanks in advance for the help. Hopefully this is clear, otherwise I can post more details.

Best,
