Junction Mapper is a semi-automated software (Java Desktop application) for analysing data from images of cells in close proximity to each other in monolayers. The focus of Junction Mapper is to measure the morphology of cell boundaries, define single junctions and quantify the length, area and intensity of the staining of different proteins localised at cell-cell contacts. The output are various unique parameters that assess the contacting interface between cells and up to two junctional markers.

A collection of Java tools and HTTP services (APIs) for rendering transformed image tiles that includes:

• a JSON data model for render, tile, and transform specifications,
• a Java stand-alone render application / library,
• a set of render web services that provide RESTful APIs to persisted collections of tile and transform specifications, and
• a set of Java clients for processing/rendering data that utilize the render web services to retrieve and/or store persisted specifications.
• Docker packaging for building the libraries and deploying the render web services

The basic concept is to render images (tiles) based on transformation files, without having to store the big generated image from an alignment of tiles (mosaicking).
