About - zitmen/thunderstorm GitHub Wiki
ThunderSTORM is an open-source, interactive, and modular plug-in for ImageJ designed for automated processing, analysis, and visualization of data acquired by single molecule localization microscopy methods such as PALM and STORM. ThunderSTORM offers an extensive collection of processing and post-processing methods so that users can easily adapt the process of analysis to their data. ThunderSTORM also offers a set of tools for creation of simulated data and for quantitative performance evaluation of localization algorithms using Monte-Carlo simulations.
Read our paper to get more information about ThunderSTORM. There is also a Supplementary Note "Methodology and Algorithms" available containing a detailed description of the methods and algorithms we used in ThunderSTORM, and a User's Guide for the software with tutorials and guidelines for the choice of various parameters.
