Getting the data

• scripts used in the workshop can be downloaded here - if you don't want to use git, you can just click the green Code button, and click Download ZIP

• data for the 3D segmentation demo can be downloaded

  ​here from the

  ​CREMI challenge. The security certificate on

  the CREMI site is currently expired. Here is a temporary link to the

  same file.

Developers

• Please sign up for a Github account if you do not already have one. If you are proficient at git, then this is not necessary

• To follow along with the developer session, we strongly recommend downloading IntelliJ. It will be difficult to provide support for any other development environment during the tutorial session.
