Explore the dataset
You have multiple options to interactively explore the dataset:
NeuPrint is a web-based platform for interactively exploring connectome data. You can search for neurons, visualize their morphology, and analyze their connectivity.
Neuroglancer is a web-based platform for visualizing large-scale 3D data. You can explore the image data, segmentation and synapse detection in 3D. The above neuroglancer scene contains the following layers:
em-clahe: the EM image data; try pressing space to toggle the viewcns-seg: the neuron segmentation; this layer is currently active - try changing the current search term from "DNa01" to e.g. "DP1m"brain/vnc-neuropil-shell: layers for the neuropil outlinespresyn/postsyn: toggle the layers by clicking on them to show pre- and postsynaptic sites for the currently selected neurons
In addition to the above visible layers, the scene contains a number of "archived" layers that you can enable by clicking on the little stack button in the top right corner where it says "6/37". Among others you will find:
flywire-meshes: neuron meshes from the FlyWire connectome (v783) transformed into maleCNS space for co-visualizationhemibrain-meshes: neuron meshes from the hemibrain (v1.2.1) connectome transformed into maleCNS space for co-visualizationbrain-/vnc-defects: these layers show areas with known data defects/artefacts
