For a recent blog post, I needed to get my hands on some Imaris IMS files. Fortunately for me, the good folks over at OME have a nice repository of example images in a variety of formats. The OME Team use this data for testing the read/write functions in their Bio-Formats library. I was particularly interested in downloading all of their Imaris images, but it appeared the only way to get the entire dataset was to manually download each file. I can’t waste that much time downloading files!
