Welcome to Viking’s Documentation¶
Viking is a multi-user web-based collaborative management system for images and volumes which allows users to view multi-terabyte datasets, annotate images with their own annotation schema, and summarize the results. Viking was developed by James Anderson at the Marc Lab for use with the first retinal connectome which was assembled using SSTEM and Computation Molecular Phenotyping
Viking’s role begins after images are collected and registered into a volume. The Marc Lab uses Nornir to build our volumes.
