Hi,

Robb McLeod studies this problem in detail, and came up with the MRCZ standard, as described at
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsb.2017.11.012
Or

The programs are available at

I would vote for bzip2 over compressed tiff.

For a test 50 frame, 1.4G stack, pbzip2 gives a 214M archive, while mrc2tif gives a 264M tiff - and pbzip2 is much faster to compress/decompress at least on my system (GPU workstation with 24 cores/48 threads)

Cheers
Oli

Hey!

In addition to what Takanori wrote: If you're stuck with EPU for data collection, this tool can run on the K2 computer to convert gain-uncorrected MRCs to compressed TIFFs on-the-fly: https://github.com/dtegunov/stacker2. It will also happily compress your old files, assuming they contain only integers.

I very much hope that one day we will get an EPU version with TIFF support for K2/3 data. And with most of SerialEM's functionality. And a pony. In this exact order, please ;-)

Cheers,
Dimitry
