Concepts
Understand how copick represents cryoET data, the geometric conventions it follows, and the processing tools built on top of the data model.
-
Data Model
The object hierarchy — runs, voxel spacings, tomograms, picks, meshes, and segmentations — and how it maps onto storage.
-
Geometry Conventions
Coordinate systems, array ordering, multiscale pyramids, and the 4×4 transforms copick uses for points and orientations.
-
Processing Tools
Convert between picks, segmentations, and meshes; process volumes and segmentations; and run spatial / boolean operations.
-
Storage Backends
Access data on local, shared, S3, SSH, or CZ cryoET Data Portal storage through the same API.
