metadata-viewer 2.5

Generic metadata viewer

Metadata-viewer is a Python package designed to help you easily visualize metadata from various file formats mainly for visualizing metadata associated with cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) data. Its primary functionality includes displaying data in both table and image gallery modes. This package is capable of handling large datasets with millions of rows and performing operations such as selecting and sorting quickly. While its core purpose is to serve as a viewer within the Scipion framework, it can also be used independently outside of Scipion. The package facilitates the exploration of cryo-EM-related information and other types of metadata through efficient data manipulation and visualization, making it a valuable tool for researchers in the field. It is available as a small self-contained Python module.
