Images & Link Data from IDR

Postby DavidEgan » Mon Jan 29, 2018 1:48 pm

I would like to download all the images from an IDR study for High Content Imaging of Stem Cells workshop in Edinburgh in March. http://www.crm.ed.ac.uk/seminars/high-c ... -edinburgh

Can I get some help on how to do this? Is there an API that we can use?

Also I'd like to be able to download the web links to the all wells with the well ID e.g. https://idr.openmicroscopy.org/webclien ... ll-1313202

Thanks for your help.

Hi David,

You can get the Wells and Images in a Plate using e.g.

https://idr.openmicroscopy.org/webgateway/plate/5960/0/

with plate ID and field Index 0.
This is what the webclient UI is using to build the plate view.

Docs for the /webgateway/ API are at https://docs.openmicroscopy.org/latest/ ... teway.html

We are moving to a newer api designed to be a more complete solution - see https://docs.openmicroscopy.org/latest/ ... n-api.html but we first need to make this publicly available for the IDR.

Do you need to download original images or can you use rendered images?
Currently the IDR doesn't allow download of original image data, but you can get rendered images using e.g.

https://idr.openmicroscopy.org/webgatew ... 05244/0/0/

where 3205244/0/0 refers to Image ID, Z-index and T-index.
This will render the image with the currently saved rendering settings.

You can get more info on each image using:

https://idr.openmicroscopy.org/webgatew ... a/3205244/

This will give you the number of channels, pixel type, rendering settings etc.
The 'min' and 'max' for each channel are the pixel range, the 'start' and 'end' are current rendering cutoff levels.
You can apply various rendering settings to the render_image URL (see the webgateway Docs link)

E.g. To render only the 5th channel, white, with start level:600 -> end level 6505, use:

https://idr.openmicroscopy.org/webgatew ... 505$FFFFFF

Hope that helps,
Regards,
Will.

Will,
Thanks a lot. I'll have a look at this and see how it works for me. For me rendered images are already useful.

The information you gave me above was really useful. I used it run a very cool workshop where we processed extracted features for a screen that is in the IDR and then we could link out directly to your browser. All the meta data came from the IDR too. Very nice.

We would love to be able to get the original images from the IDR. At the moment as you mentioned we can only get the rendered images. Are there any plans to allow people to get the original images. This will be in demand especially for Deep Learning.

Great to here it. If you have any links or recordings, we'd love to see them.

We understand completely. Our recent push has been a major upgrade of the IDR to make it compatible with OMERO 5.4. This is done as of last week. After the Users Meeting, we'll be investigating the type of access that you're referring to. If you're interested in the details early, this will be via https://github.com/glencoesoftware/omer ... xel-buffer or a similar service.

All the best,
~Josh.

Just curious about any updates to this. I like @DavidEgan's point of having IDR serve images for training deep learning models -- what is the best/suggested way to download or otherwise access all the raw images?

Thanks,
David L.

Hi David

We're still working on a good long term solution. Using the IDR as a data source for machine learning is something we're looking into ourselves.

For now if you want the raw data the best option is to use Aspera. We have a pre-configured Docker image:

https://github.com/IDR/aspera-client-docker

If you're familiar with Aspera you can also use the standard client directly.

As you're hopefully aware the raw data only contains a small portion of the metadata provided by the IDR- this is stored separately in OMERO and available via an API. A majority of the metadata can be queried using the public JSON API:

https://idr.openmicroscopy.org/about/api.html

If you want to make more complex queries, or to request the raw pixel values, you'll need to use the OMERO API:

https://docs.openmicroscopy.org/omero/5 ... index.html

Please let us know if you require a username/password for this.
