VolViewerOMERO

Overview

It is possible to build VolViewer with support for reading images directly from an OMERO server. The viewer can read XYZC image stacks with up to 3 channels (C). Minimal metadata such as the image dimensions, physical voxel size and channel min/max threshold values are also supported. Currently the viewer supports the following OMERO data types: uint8, uint16, int8, int16.

For the exact implementation details of the OMERO loader please refer to these files h / cpp from the SVN.

Requirements

To build VolViewer with OMERO support you will require the following:

• An SVN client, to check out the VolViewer source code, such as TortoiseSVN for windows or svn for linux/mac.
• The latest Qt libraries.
• The OMERO cpp libraries.

How To

• Start by checking out the latest VolViewer source code from the SVN:
  • [1]
• Next build the OMERO cpp libraries following this guide:
  • OMERO cpp libraries
  • Note to build the OMERO cpp you will require the ICE libraries. Note that these exist in binary form for Windows, Mac and Linux.
