Abstract
14604+
14605+
For over 20 years, the Open Microscopy Environment (OME) has developed tools and
14606+
specifications to support bioimaging data sharing. Technologies such as Bio-Formats,
14607+
OMERO, and OME-TIFF have helped researchers manage the growing size, complexity,
14608+
and acquisition rates of imaging datasets. However, with increasing mandates for
14609+
research data management, such as the Nelson memo in the United States, and the
14610+
shift toward cloud-native workflows, the bioimaging community faces new challenges
14611+
in ensuring scalable and FAIR data infrastructure.
14612+
14613+
In 2024, following expanding community engagement, the focus of the Next-Generation
14614+
File Format (NGFF) community was on building consensus around a Request for Comments
14615+
(RFC) process. This collaborative effort has laid the foundation for future refinements
14616+
and wider adoption. In parallel, we hosted the “OME2024 NGFF Challenge,"
14617+
bringing together over the course of just four months hundreds of terabytes of
14618+
data in a first prototype of federated image hosting, showcasing the power of
14619+
OME-Zarr for handling large-scale, distributed datasets.
14620+
14621+
In 2025, we are set to take a major step toward a stable FAIR solution with OME-Zarr
14622+
1.0. This milestone marks a crucial phase towards an international standard, providing
14623+
an open, cloud-optimized, and scalable solution for handling terabyte- and petabyte-scale
14624+
imaging data. The 1.0 release will introduce long-awaited transforms, enabling
14625+
robust support for multimodal datasets, followed by collections and an extensibility
14626+
mechanism to accommodate evolving scientific needs. These additions emphasize
14627+
a solid foundation on which future capabilities can be built while providing the
14628+
stability needed for broader adoption of the format. This presentation will outline
14629+
the path to 1.0, including community-driven refinements, vendor engagement to
14630+
ensure complete metadata representation, and alignment with global bioimaging
14631+
initiatives. As imaging data continues to grow in scale and complexity, consensus-driven
14632+
evolution of infrastructure will be key to ensuring a truly FAIR future for bioimaging.
