OME Files is a standalone C++ library for reading and writing life sciences image file formats.
OME Files' primary purpose is to convert proprietary microscopy data into an open standard called the OME data model, particularly into the OME-TIFF file format. See the statement of purpose for a thorough explanation and rationale. OME Files provides support for reading and writing files using the OME-TIFF file format and for the OME metadata model which is the basis for the file format.
OME-TIFF using the OME metadata model.
Many software packages use Bio-Formats to read and write open microscopy formats such as OME-TIFF in Java programs. OME Files provides equivalent functionality for C++ programs.
You can use OME Files C++ to easily support OME-TIFF in your software.
