These are typically acquired using three-dimensional imaging techniques such as Micro-Computer Tomography (MicroCT).
They represent a rich dataset that form a basis for characterization of physical processes involving porous media.
Digital Rock Images are scattered throughout the web on various hosting sites such as the Digital Rocks Portal, Zenodo, or university specific sites. This library aims to make downloading these datasets easy through a python interface so they can be used in automated image processing workflows, reproducible research, or data science and machine learning worfklows.
Furthermore, these images are associated with metadata about their spatial dimensions which should be considered when loading these image datasets.
The library therefore requires these metadata to be available and creates an xarray DataArray which can keep spatial scale information when loading an image dataset.
Each dataset is linked in this library i.e. no hosting is done by the library itself.
