ShareLoc.XYZ

ShareLoc is an open platform for sharing single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) data and tools, as described in Ouyang, Bai et al. Nat Meth 2022.

New to ShareLoc?

Watch this quick overview tutorial to get you started.

Here is a specific tutorial on how to upload SMLM data

Key features of ShareLoc:

  • Open repository for SMLM data and tools
  • Data are stored on Zenodo, an open repository operated by CERN
  • Browser-based SMLM viewer in 2D and 3D, no installation required
  • Flexible ontology-based data annotation using the ontology lookup service (OLS) run by EMBL-EBI
  • Open and extendable via ImJoy plugins
  • Easy-to-use upload interface with file preview support
  • Import various file formats

The SMLM file format

To enable faster preview and portable sharing, we developed a binary and losslessly compressed file format for storing localization tables and image patches.
