BioImage Archive: bringing bioimaging data together.

BioImage Archive is EMBL-EBI’s flagship deposition database for life sciences images, providing access to over 11 PB and enabling interactive OME-Zarr streaming.

• Why it matters: Imaging studies need reproducible quantitative results and scalable reanalysis, but data are often fragmented across modalities and scales.
• What they did: The Archive supports deposition and methods development, and is adding interactive exploration, visualization, and streaming access via the OME-Zarr file format.
• The result: Infrastructure upgrades are migrating holdings and building a unified submission system, with plans to extend OME-Zarr access to all archived data, including Electron Microscopy Public Image Archive content.
