dSTORM microscopy can improve the resolution of conventional fluorescent microscopy by one order of magnitude. The data analysis software has to localize many thousand single molecule point-spread-functions to reconstruct an image of the underlying structure.

Content of this archive: storm/ sources for single-molecule-localization and command-line utility to analyze .sif and .hdf5 input data gui/ Qt-based graphical-user-interface (GUI) for selection of input files and appropriate parameter(s) python/ helper scripts to analyze and display the coordinate lists generated by the utilities above colorcomposer/ multi-channel measurements have to be aligned due to chromatic aberrations. Tetraspeck-Beads are detected automatically so that the images can be registrated easily.

A manual is in doc/doc.pdf.

See INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install storm or storm-gui from scratch.
