Welcome to our wiki

The EM-Glossary provides terminology for electron microscopy which was harmonised in a community process. Please see our community repository for information about our process, or on how you can contribute.

For technical adoption the EM-Glossary is provided as a OWL representation (emg.owl) in our EM-Glossary-OWL repository. Information about the assembly, release cycle and suggestions for technical adoption can be found in the wiki there.

For convenient exploration, we offer the EM-Glossary Web Explorer. The code that is deployed to offer this service is maintained in this repository. Here we provide information on which technologies are used, dependencies, installation process of that web-resource.
