Hi all,

We were asked the following question by one of our users who has a couple of TB of tiled stacks that he would like to import into TrakEM.

> I would like to import stacks into trackEM and place them at the right position.
> therefore i generate the textfile of the xyz position of the origin of the stack.
> the files are compressed 3d Tiff files of 100 slices each.
> The files gets placed at the right xy coordinate but z is not distributed onto the different layers.
> However one single 3d tiff file stack gets imported just fine.
>
> Is there something to be done or do i have to reconvert all the stacks into single files ?
> Converting the 3dtiffs into single plane tiff would be very time consuming as the compound datasize is very high.

So far the only solution I could think of based on the Tutorials was to export each stack as a series of TIFFs then import those into TrackEM.

Is there another way to import a tiling of TIFF stacks?

Thanks for any feedback you might have,


Oli
