Does OMERO Support FLIM files and FLIM analysis?

OMERO currently supports the uploading and viewing of some FLIM files, specifically ICS, and STD file formats. Currently the OME-XML model does not support N-Dimensional Data as required by FLIM, so viewing FLIM data that has extra-dimensions such as phase, frequency and time will not be viewed correctly in insight, nor stored or retrieved correctly from OMERO.

We are actively working on adding FLIM to the OME Data Model, Bio-Formats, and OMERO. We have a Trac page which contains our progress so far in adding N-Dimensional data to OMERO.

There is also a detailed discussion on the mailing list.

We have announced our 6D and 7D solution which should provide a stop gap solution for some FLIM data until we can move to full N-Dimensional Data support.
