Relate is a correlative software package optimised to work with EM, EDS, EBSD, & AFM data and images.  It provides the tools you need to correlate data from different microscopes, visualise multi-layered data in 2D and 3D, and conduct correlative analyses.

• Combining data from different imaging modalities (e.g. AFM, EDS & EBSD)

• Interactive display of multi-layer correlated data

• Analytical tools for metadata interrogation

• Documented workflows and processes

Correlate

• Import data from AZtec using the H5oina file format
• Import AFM data
• Correlate both sets of data using intuitive image overlays and image matching tools
• Produce combined multimodal datasets

Visualise

• 2D display of multi-layered data
• 3D visualisation of topography combined with AFM material properties, EM images, and EDS & EBSD map overlays
• Customisation of colour palettes, data overlays, image rendering options, and document display
• Export images and animations

Analyse

• Generate profile (cross section) views of multimodal data
• Measure and quantify data across multiple layers
• Analyse areas via data thresholding using amount of x-ray counts, phase maps, height, or other material properties.
• Select an extensive range of measurement parameters
• Export analytical data to text or CSV files

MorphoNet is a novel concept of web-based morphodynamic browser to visualise and interact with complex datasets, with applications in research and teaching. 

MorphoNet offers a comprehensive palette of interactions to explore the structure, dynamics and variability of biological shapes and its connection to genetic expressions. 

By handling a broad range of natural or simulated morphological data, it fills a gap which has until now limited the quantitative understanding of morphodynamics and its genetic underpinnings by contributing to the creation of ever-growing morphological atlases.

Paintera is a general visualization tool for 3D volumetric data and proof-reading in segmentation/reconstruction with a primary focus on neuron reconstruction from electron micrographs in connectomics. It features/supports:

•  Views of orthogonal 2D cross-sections of the data at arbitrary angles and zoom levels
•  Mipmaps for efficient display of arbitrarily large data at arbitrary scale levels
•  Label data
  •  Painting
  •  Manual agglomeration
  •  3D visualization as polygon meshes
    •  Meshes for each mipmap level
    •  Mesh generation on-the-fly via marching cubes to incorporate painted labels and agglomerations in 3D visualization. Marching Cubes is parallelized over small blocks. Only relevant blocks are considered (huge speed-up for sparse label data).

Paintera is implemented in Java and makes extensive use of the UI framework JavaFX

Blender is the free and open source 3D creation suite. It supports the entirety of the 3D pipeline—modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering, compositing and motion tracking, even video editing and game creation.
