03 - Introduction to Digital Images

Lesson Overview

This section is divided into two parts:

• We will first introduce the concept of digital images: what they are and how can we display them.

• We will then cover how digital images are represented in python and how we can manipulate and visualize them using different libraries.

We will use python in practice to:

• Load and read images using libraries such as tifffile

• Visualize images with libraries such as ndv and matplotlib and get their properties

• Manipulate images using the numpy library
