Specifications#

OME-Zarr files have standardized metadata (that is the OME portion of “OME-Zarr”) - each new version of OME-Zarr files has its own specification. Those specifications are listed below.

The current released version of the OME-Zarr specification is 0.6. The development version is unreleased and subject to change.

Note

The specification is the normative technical reference for OME-Zarr. For an overview with explanations and examples, a good start is to see the OME-Zarr book.
