Description

The DZI File Format is a pyramidal tile source specification where individual tiles are RGB/RGBA JPEG/PNG images. DZI is a very popular tile source for zoomable web-viewers like OpenSeadragon, and as a result many tile sources are available over HTTP. This plugin wraps a DZI tile source (local or remote) as a multiscale Zarr, where each pyramidal level is a zarr.Array of shape (level_height, level_width, 3/4), allowing the same images to be viewed in napari + dask.

Installation

You can install napari-dzi-zarr via pip:

pip install napari-dzi-zarr
