Open MatteBailey opened 3 years ago
At least one big open question: In both OME (/Plates/Plate
) and Zeiss (/ImageDocument/Metadata/Experiment/ExperimentBlocks/AcquisitionBlock/SubDimensionSetups/RegionsSetup/SampleHolder/Template
) metadata, there is allowance for multiple plates. And there are even instances within AICS' data in which this is the case!1 But because wells (within Zeiss metadata, /ImageDocument/.../Information/.../Scene/Shape
) are not linked to plates (/ImageDocment/.../Experiment/.../Template
), either hierarchically or by reference, how are we supposed to connect which wells correspond to which plates?
1 In a random sample of ~1100 CZI images from various data collection eras/modalities I pulled from FMS on Feb. 4, 2022, nearly 200 of them had multiple plates in their metadata.
CZI contains information about which well each scene comes from in
/ImageDocument/Metadata/Information/Image/Dimensions/S/Scenes/Scene/Shape
. In OME, this information can be translated toPlate/Well/WellSample
, which can refer to anImage
representing the relevant scene.
