+==== Bio-Formats - Java-based bio image and meta-data library ====
+Bio-Formats is a standalone Java library for reading and writing life sciences image file formats. It is capable of parsing both pixels and metadata for a large number of formats, as well as writing to several formats. The primary goal of Bio-Formats is to facilitate the exchange of microscopy data between both different software packages and different organizations. It accomplishes this goal by converting proprietary microscopy data into an open standard called the OME data model, particularly into the OME-TIFF file format.\\
