What’s new for OMERO 5

From a user’s perspective, OMERO 5 mostly alters the way import looks in OMERO.insight. Your files are now uploaded on to the OMERO.server in their original format which means you can always export them in this format. We have also introduced checksums to confirm if your file has been correctly uploaded so that you can have confidence that no corruption has occurred on import and your files are safely stored. In combination, these changes mean that you no longer need to store duplicates of your data outside of OMERO, for example if you require the original format for some of your data analysis.

• Importing data guide has been updated to illustrate the new workflow.
• The Command Line Import has also been updated to reflect the new functionality.
• There is a new Getting Started guide for OMERO 5.0.
• OMERO Command Line Interface has been updated to document a new plugin which allows you to list, create, and import tags and tag sets from the command line.

Note

OMERO demo server is now available for OMERO 5.
