For quality, interpretation, reproducibility and sharing value, microscopy images should be accompanied by detailed descriptions of the conditions that were used to produce them. Micro-Meta App is an intuitive, highly interoperable, open-source software tool that was developed in the context of the 4D Nucleome (4DN) consortium and is designed to facilitate the extraction and collection of relevant microscopy metadata as specified by the recent 4DN-BINA-OME tiered-system of Microscopy Metadata specifications. In addition to substantially lowering the burden of quality assurance, the visual nature of Micro-Meta App makes it particularly suited for training purposes.
为了保证质量、解释力、可重复性和共享价值,显微镜图像应该附有详细描述其生成条件的说明。Micro-Meta App 是一个直观、高度可互操作、开源的软件工具,它是在 4D Nucleome(4DN)联盟的背景下开发的,旨在根据最近的 4DN-BINA-OME 分层显微镜元数据规范来促进相关显微镜元数据的提取和收集。除了大大降低质量保证的负担外,Micro-Meta App 的可视化性质使其特别适合培训目的。
