Policy and Configuration of Image Analysis Workstations @ MICC Cell Observatory
Image Analysis Workstations are available for users of the MICC Cell Observatory.
Some of them are dedicated to the analysis of Lightsheet data, and the others are open to all the Users of the Cell Observatory.
Usage of all workstations must be scheduled through the Internal Services => "Advanced Light Microscopy" service.
If you use Imaris, Arivis, AutoQuant, or LasX, you must schedule their usage as well through the Internal Services
For Authorization, please contact Sefi Addadi or Ofra Golani, For further help, you can also contact Vitaly Golodnitsky
Image Analysis Workstations Usage Policy
General
- Usage of all workstations must be scheduled through the Internal Services => "Advanced Light Microscopy" service. For Internal services and room entrance authorization, please contact Sefi Addadi or Ofra Golani
- We provide two categories of Workstations
- General WS: are mainly for users who acquire data using the Lightsheet Z1, Ultra Microscope (unless coordinated with us otherwise for specific needs), and other Cell Observatory microscopes or use our Image analysis service
- Remote-only WS: intended for remote usage and can be used by all authorized users for image analysis tasks ( Maldives )
- The operating system allows multiple remote users. However, priority is given to the person who scheduled work through internal services. If you log in as a second user, you SHOULD NOT use heavy-load software without coordinating with the scheduled person.
General Workstations
- Only data acquired on the Lightsheet microscopes can be stored on the gpfs disk (ESS). No other data is allowed on this gpfs disk !!!
- For Data organization on the ESS, please refer to ESS Guidelines
- Intended for use mainly by users who acquired data on the Cell Observatory microscopes or use our image analysis service (unless coordinated with us otherwise for specific needs)
- The user's data should be stored in a subfolder named by your WIS userid under \\lscf-storage\data ( so for the user XYZ it will be\lscf-storage\data\xyz ) - and not on the desktop or any other location. We can help you make it a shared folder for remote folder access.
- You can store the data on the disk for the analysis period, but data must be deleted within 2 weeks after the analysis is done.
- The data is not backed up.
Remote-Only WS
- Maldives WS does not have a screen. It is intended for remote usage and can be used by all authorized users (not necessarily for data acquired at the Cell Observatory)
- Only data acquired on the Lightsheet microscopes can be stored on the ESS (gpfs). No other data is allowed on this gpfs disk !!!
- User's data (not acquired using Lightsheet) should be stored in a subfolder named by your WIS userid under \\lscf-storage\data ( so for the user XYZ it will be \\lscf-storage\data\xyz ) - and not on the desktop or any other location. We can help you make it a shared folder for remote folder access.
- You can store the data on the disk for the analysis period, but data must be deleted within 2 weeks after the analysis is done.
- The data is not backed up.
