Description

Hi all, first, thanks for starting this project - we are considering NGFF / Zarr 3.0 for large 3D multichannel datasets of light-sheet microscopy brain data.

I'm wondering if there is any plan to capture OME-XML data in the Zarr attribute hierarchy, in particular the microscopy data such as Instrument. I'd be happy to participate in the discussion and formulation of this extension.

Research direction

The issue names no implementation files or tests. Start by reviewing the NGFF/Zarr attribute hierarchy and the OME-XML Instrument schema linked in the discussion, then determine how microscopy metadata could be represented. Done would require an agreed extension design and its specification.
