SUMMARY:Chunked file formats for massive imaging datasets - David Stansby 
 - Engineering\, University College London
DTSTART:20251009T120000Z

CONTACT:Jack Atkinson
DESCRIPTION:The <a href="https://human-organ-atlas.esrf.fr/">Human Organ A
 tlas</a> paints a beautiful picture of the human body\, with whole organs 
 imaged down to the resolution of individual cells. These datasets are huge
  – each image is typically 1 TB\, and across over 500 images we have col
 lected more than half a petabyte of data. This immediately presents a chal
 lenge – how do we process and analyse datasets that are larger than the 
 memory on our computers?\n\nIn this talk I’ll give an overview of the im
 ages in the Human Organ Atlas and use this to motivate the use of next gen
 eration chunked file formats. I’ll talk about how these chunked file for
 mats work\, the software being developing to help scientists work with the
 se file formats\, and ongoing work to develop a framework for memory-bound
 ed computations.
