Data Carpentry Image Processing Data

These files are intended for use with the Image Processing with Python curriculum from Data Carpentry. Files will be useful for instructors teaching this curriculum in a workshop setting, as well as individuals working through these materials on their own.

This curriculum uses a variety of example images, chosen to illustrate different concepts and techniques in image processing. Several of the images might be described as biological or scientific - e.g. bacterial colonies, plant seedlings and root clusters, well plates - but others are of common objects, e.g. remote controls, paper shapes, etc.
