This solution was built as part of the ANDS funded Monash ARDC-EIF Comprehensive Data Management for Microscopy Research Datasets Project. This project aimed to develop software solutions that:
- Capture data and metadata from research instruments and devices
- Make available and automate feeds of data collection descriptions
- Enable data/metadata management and sharing
- Facilitate the re-use and discovery of data
- Recognise the need to facilitate the overall data stream/s from Monash to the RDA which include collections with related party and activity descriptions in compliance with the requirements set out in the ANDS Minimum Metadata Contents for RIF-CS
This solution allows the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences to generate and capture experimental information and raw data from optical microscopy instruments in a centralised location, rather than the current practise of capturing this on researchers lab-notes and personal disks. This approach will establish a concept for the mandatory annotation of digital imaging data to maximise the use, re-use and distribution of experimental information within the scientific community.
- Optical and fluorescence microscopy
- Confocal microscopy
- Live cell imaging
- Transmission electron microscopy
- Scanning electron microscopy
- Cryo methods for tissue preparation
- Digital imaging and image analysis
The Open Microscopy Environment, OMERO was selected for its data management and sharing capability which includes:
- Importing Files
- Organising Files
- Viewing Files
- Analysing Files
- Exporting Files
- Sharing Files through groups
Sharing capability of OMERO client is further extended by creating an interface from the OMERO Insight client to Research Data Australia.
Check out the OMERO Insight client customized version for ANDS funded Monash ARDC-EIF project from github
Check out the metadata registration server components from Github.
The OMERO user guide is a quick start guide designed to show you how to easily use many of the common features offered by OMERO, including the Registration of Collections to Research Data Australia.
This project is supported by the Australian National Data Service (ANDS). ANDS is supported by the Australian Government through the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy Program and the Education Investment Fund (EIF) Super Science Initiative.
