Home - ISET/isetonline GitHub Wiki

ISETOnline is deigned to achieve these goals:

• Provide a usable repository for "expensive" data, scenarios, and results that are created by the various ISET projects and collaborators. (Currently the data storage tier is implemented as a set of indexed and cross-referenced collections in mongodb.)

• Provide the Matlab code needed to augment the ISET family of libraries by allowing them convenient access to the repository.

• Specifically, augment ISETAuto with a full suite of tools to create, manage, store, and access EXRScenes, ISETScenes, Lighting Scenarios, and Sensor Images -- including creating a website to access and work with them that doesn't require MATLAB or Python.

• Provide a useful portal into ISET's data, assets, results, and other resources to the broader research community. (Currently this consists of a middleware tier written node.js, coupled with a front-end written in React for Javascript). (Both layers are part of the ISETOnline repo, assisted by Matlab scripts also found in the ISETOnline repo).

• In all cases, support as much computation on the data as possible with as little user effort as practicable. For the front-end this includes filtering, sorting, analysis, and possibly some computation without requiring a full ISET install.
