LocalRemote Overview

Now with intern's LocalRemote, you can create Hierarchical Data Format following similar guidelines to those of boss, allowing for easy data manipulation between BOSS, DVID, and HDF5.

Currently intern's LocalRemote is only available through the RemoteExtension branch.

intern now allows you to create a local HDF5 file to store smaller sized data temporarily on your computer without taking as much space on your disk.

HDF5 lets you store huge amounts of numerical data, and easily manipulate that data from NumPy. For example, you can slice into multi-terabyte datasets stored on disk, as if they were real NumPy arrays. Thousands of datasets can be stored in a single file, categorized and tagged however you want.
