Description

NWB files have location fields:

- `ImagingPlane.location` (optical physiology)
- `electrodes.location` (extracellular electrophysiology)
- `IntracellularElectrode.location` (intracellular electrophysiology)

These "locations" are brain areas, and we can populate asset-level metadata about brain area by scanning them. They often correspond exactly to Allen CCF brain area abbreviations, and can therefore be mapped directly to the MBAO ontology. See https://github.com/bendichter/analyze-locations/tree/main for details.
