Research direction

Review existing Markdown posts in src/posts and the related issue #272 before choosing a bioimaging use case. Draft a short post following the proposed outline, adding images, code blocks, links, or references only where they support the story. Done means the user story is formatted for publication on Xarray's blog.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

user-story

This is a proposal for a bioimaging use case story for Xarray. The story will be published on Xarray's blog (https://xarray.dev/blog).

Why?

Xarray is used in a number of bioimaing applications today (e.g. Allen SDK) and is a candidate data model / toolkit in a number of others (e.g. biohub, napari, etc.). A user story blog post showing how Xarray can be used to represent and analyze bioimaging data would help socialize the concept across the Xarray developer and bioimaging communities.

What?

We are targeting a short and non-technical post that illustrates how Xarray is (or could be) used in your bioimaging context. Below is a template outline that you should feel free to modify:

  1. Who am I?
  2. What problem am I trying to solve?
  3. How does Xarray help?
  4. Why did I choose Xarray?
  5. Current pain points (or ways that Xarray could better serve your use case)
  6. Technology I use around Xarray
  7. Anything else to know?
  8. Links and references

Feel free to insert images or short code blocks if they help you tell your story.

How?

Xarray's blog using Markdown with some front-matter. You can copy one of the existing posts to get started or you can write in a google-doc-like-thing and ask us to do the markdown formatting. If you copy a previous post, use a name like user-story-brain-imaging or whatever makes sense for your application.
