An open and universal framework for processing spatial omics data.#

SpatialData is a data framework that comprises a FAIR storage format and a collection of python libraries for performant access, alignment, and processing of uni- and multi-modal spatial omics datasets. This page provides documentation on how to install, use, and extend the core spatialdata library. See the links below to learn more about other packages in the SpatialData ecosystem.
