NGFF-Converter

Converts Bio-Formats supported bioimaging data formats to OME-NGFF and OME-TIFF.

Overview

NGFF-Converter is an open-source application designed for the conversion of bioimaging data formats into OME-NGFF or OME-TIFF. It integrates Glencoe Software’s and the Open Microscopy Environment's renowned Bio-Formats proprietary conversion library, offering an easy-to-use, intuitive GUI for seamless data transformation.

OME-NGFF is a cloud-optimized data format ideal for managing multi-dimensional bioimaging datasets commonly used in fields such as digital pathology, multiplexed imaging, and high content screening. This compatibility facilitates the adoption of cloud-based strategies for both academic and industrial research and development programs that focus on bioimaging.

Users benefit from customizable conversion options, providing expert users with complete control over their data conversions. The inclusion of both novel OME-NGFF and traditional OME-TIFF formats offers a unified data approach, ensuring simplified data access and analysis within a common, open framework.

  • Full control with customizable conversion settings for advanced users.
  • Support for both OME-NGFF and OME-TIFF, enabling unified data handling.

For those interested in scalable image analysis in the cloud, a case study details the use of OME-NGFF with the OMERO-CellProfiler Connector.
