Importing H5 from BigStitcher to OMERO? #90

Open cikus3 opened 3 years ago

cikus3 commented 3 years ago

Dears, as great fan of BigStitcher I would like to start using OMERO to share the file generated with colleagues; I noticed that if I save a file as new HDF5 file (after registrations and fusion) I can`t load it on OMERO. Moreover, if I try to open the file with BioFormat Impoerter I got also an error (See both attachment); any solutions to import these H5 file to OMERO?.. Do I have to save them in any special way? Thanks! image image image

Hi, I think OMERO might simply not support these high-dimensional datasets. Could you try to export as TIFF and import that instead?

Ok, thanks for the feedbcak! So, yes, my currenrt strategy is to save the file also in TIFF and then import them in OMERO; however, ideally I would like to directly import the BigStithcer-HDF5 to Omero. About OMERO: I know that is strictly connected with BioFomat and is possible to load BDV (HDF5) file (but apparently not all them); we are currently working a lot with OMERO and I`ll let you know if we find any good solutions. Cheers
