Glencoe Software, Open Microscopy Environment Consortium release updated software packages

Glencoe Software, a provider of image data management tools for life science and biopharmaceutical research, and a member of the Open Microscopy Environment Consortium, released latest versions of image file translation tool Bio-Formats and image data management platform Omero.

Glencoe Software claimed that Bio-Formats 4.2.1 now supports over 100 image file formats, including the PerkinElmer Densitometer format and a number of proprietary versions of TIFF.

In Omero Beta4.2.1, the speed of deleting very large datasets has been substantially improved and a series of improvements to the Omero.web application have been released.

The combined enhancements focus on productivity and performance within diverse workflow environments that require flexible interaction with other software platforms, collaborative interaction and careful cataloging control and management of scientific image-assets.

Glencoe Software president Jason Swedlow said that OME and Glencoe Software were excited about the latest release.

"Bio-Formats and Omero are used by the scientific community, and we were determined to rapidly release these new facilities to enhance the experience of our user base where it counts," Swedlow said.

"Our work will now focus on support of very large images, and the further enhancement of our Omero.fs filesystem access technology."
