Data handling

ASAP is an open source platform for visualizing, annotating and automatically analyzing whole-slide histopathology images. It consists of several key-components (slide input/output, image processing, viewer) which can be used seperately. It is built on top of several well-developed open source packages like OpenSlide, Qt and OpenCV but also tries to extend them in several meaningful ways.

MyTardis is free and open-source data management software. It facilitates annotation, sharing and archiving of data and metadata collected from different modalities. It focuses on integration with scientific instruments, instrument facilities and research storage and computing infrastructure; to address the challenges of data storage, data access, collaboration and data publication. It is currently being used to capture data from areas such as optical microscopy, electron microscopy, medical imaging, protein crystallography, neutron and X-ray scattering, flow cytometry, genomics and proteomics.

Key features:

• Easy instrument integration.
• Discipline specific: MX, Imaging, Microscopy, Genomics ...
• Wide range of data formats & supported instruments.
• Secure cloud data storage & access.
• Simple data sharing.
• Researcher controlled data publishing.
• APIs for programmatic access to data and metadata.

The Huygens Remote Manager is an open-source, efficient, multi-user web-based interface to the Huygens software by Scientific Volume Imaging for parallel batch deconvolutions.

arivis Vision4D is a modular software for working with multi-channel 2D, 3D and 4D images of almost unlimited size independent of available RAM. Many imaging systems, such as high speed confocal, Light Sheet/ SPIM and 2 Photon systems, can produce a huge amount of multi-channel data, which arivis Vision4D handles without constraints.
