The OME element is a container for all information objects accessible by OME. These information objects include descriptions of the imaging experiments and the people who perform them, descriptions of the microscope, the resulting images and how they were acquired, the analyses performed on those images, and the analysis results themselves. An OME file may contain any or all of this information. With the creation of the Metadata Only Companion OME-XML and Binary Only OME-TIFF files the top level OME node has changed slightly. It can EITHER: Contain all the previously expected elements OR: Contain a single BinaryOnly element that points at its Metadata Only Companion OME-XML file.
This is the name of the creating application of the OME-XMLand preferably its full version.e.g "CompanyName, SoftwareName, V2.6.3456"This is optional but we hope it will be set by applicationswriting out OME-XML from scratch.
This unique identifier is used to keep track of multi part files. It allows the links between files to survive renaming. While OPTIONAL in the general case this is REQUIRED in a MetadataOnly Companion to a collection of BinaryOnly files.

The Name identifies the plate to the user. It is used much like the ID, and so must be unique within the document. If a plate name is not available when one is needed it will be constructed in the following order: 1. If name is available use it. 2. If not use "Start time - End time" (NOTE: Not a subtraction! A string representation of the two times separated by a dash.) 3. If these times are not available use the Plate ID.
A textual annotation of the current state of the plate with respect to theexperiment work-flow; e.g.1. Seed cell: done; 2. Transfection: done; 3. Gel doc: todo.
This defines the X position to use for the origin of the fields (individual images) taken in a well. It is used with the X in the WellSample to display the fields in the correct position relative to each other. Each Well in the plate has the same well origin. Units are set by WellOriginXUnit. In the OMERO clients by convention we display the WellOrigin in the center of the view.
This defines the Y position to use for the origin of the fields (individual images) taken in a well. It is used with the Y in the WellSample to display the fields in the correct position relative to each other. Each Well in the plate has the same well origin. Units are set by WellOriginYUnit. In the OMERO clients by convention we display the WellOrigin in the center of the view.

A well is part of only one Plate.The origin for the row and column identifiers is the top left corner of the plate starting at zero.i.e The top left well of a plate is index (0,0)
A marker color used to highlight the well - encoded as RGBAThe default value "-1" is #FFFFFFFF so solid white (it is a signed 32 bit value)NOTE: Prior to the 2012-06 schema the default value was incorrect and produced a transparent red not solid white.
This is the column index of the well, the origin is the top left corner of the platewith the first column of cells being column zero. i.e top left is (0,0)The combination of Row, Column has to be unique for each well in a plate.
This is the row index of the well, the origin is the top left corner of the platewith the first row of wells being row zero. i.e top left is (0,0)The combination of Row, Column has to be unique for each well in a plate.
A human readable identifier for the screening status.e.g. empty, positive control, negative control, control, experimental, etc.

This element describes the instrument used to capture the Image.It is primarily a container for manufacturer's model and catalognumbers for the Microscope, LightSource, Detector, Objective andFilters components.The Objective element contains the additional elements LensNA and Magnification.The Filters element can be composed either of separate excitation,emission filters and a dichroic mirror or a single filter set.Within the Image itself, a reference is made to this one Filter element.There may be multiple light sources, detectors, objectives and filters on a microscope.Each of these has their own ID attribute, which can be referred to from Channel.It is understood that the light path configuration can be differentfor each channel, but cannot be different for each timepoint oreach plane of an XYZ stack.

A LightSource ID must be specified for each light source, and the individuallight sources can be referred to by their LightSource IDs (eg from Channel).
The type of detector used to capture the image. The Detector ID can be used as a reference within the Channel element in the Image element. The values stored in Detector represent the fixed values, variable values modified during the acquisition go in DetectorSettings Each attribute now has an indication of what type of detector it applies to. This is preparatory work for cleaning up and possibly splitting this object into sub-types.
Gain applied to the detector signal.This is the electronic gain (as apposed to the inherent gain) that is set for the detector. [units:none] {used:EMCCD#EMGain}
The fixed Zoom for a detector. [units:none] {used:PMT}

A description of the microscope's objective lens.Required elements include the lens numerical aperture,and the magnification, both of which a floatingpoint (real) numbers.The values are those that are fixed for a particularobjective: either because it has been manufactured tothis specification or the value has been measured onthis particular objective.Correction: This is the type of correction coating applied to this lens.Immersion: This is the types of immersion medium the lens is designed towork with. It is not the same as 'Medium' in ObjectiveRef (asingle type) as here Immersion can have compound values like 'Multi'.LensNA: The numerical aperture of the lens (as a float)NominalMagnification: The specified magnification e.g. x10CalibratedMagnification: The measured magnification e.g. x10.3WorkingDistance: WorkingDistance of the lens.
The magnification of the lens as specified by the manufacturer - i.e. '60' is a 60X lens. [units:none]Note: The type of this has been changed from int to float to allowthe specification of additional lenses e.g. 0.5X lens
The units of the working distance - default:microns[µm].

A filter is either an excitation or emission filters.There should be one filter element specified per wavelength in the image.The channel number associated with a filter set is specified in Channel.It is based on the FilterSpec type, so has the required attributes Manufacturer, Model, and LotNumber.It may also contain a Type attribute which may be set to'LongPass', 'ShortPass', 'BandPass', 'MultiPass','Dichroic', 'NeutralDensity', 'Tuneable' or 'Other'.It can be associated with an optional FilterWheel - Note: this is not the same as a FilterSet
A filter 'wheel' in OME can refer to any arrangement of filters in a filter holder of any shape. It could, for example, be a filter slider. [plain text string]
