[ome-users] Position of scenes in CZI files

[Nick Trahearn]

Dear All,

Recently I've been working with CZI images using BioFormats. I'm not overly familiar with the format and its various forms but, in the images I have, each detected tissue section is placed into its own separate series (or scene, as they are called in Zeiss' viewer). I want to be able to stitch series together, relative to their original positions on the slide, in order to turn these individual sections back into a continuous image. Most of the tools required to do this are already available within BioFormats' ZeissCZIReader, but, as far as I can tell, there isn't a way to get the relative position of a series. It would be reasonably easy to add this into the existing reader, requiring just a few small additions, but I wanted to ensure that I hadn't missed anything obvious before I opened a pull request.

All the best.
Nicholas Trahearn.
