Description

@lfrank @bendichter

You both mention NWB backend for handling probe geometry description.
I have NOT studied then yet.
I will.

Are theses two codes linked somehow ?

https://github.com/NovelaNeuro/ndx-franklab-novela
this seams to be a description of in house data management for recordings that also include probes description (with multi shank)

https://github.com/catalystneuro/ndx-spatial-coordinates/blob/main/src/spec/create_extension_spec.py
being unfamilir wuth nwb I get the purposed on this, could you explain more ?

Would be a way to define some kind of offcial to describe probes in NWB.
Maybe my question is naive because I am not aware of what have already been done.

Research direction

Start by comparing the ndx-franklab-novela repository with src/spec/create_extension_spec.py in ndx-spatial-coordinates, then review how this package represents probe geometry and wiring. Document whether the NWB projects overlap and define the scope of an official probe description integration; the relationship and proposed direction should be clear to users.
