SpatialData.dataSpatialData.data
package provides utilities for accessing, reading and generating
SpatialData datasets. Data from a variety of spatial omics technologies
has been made available as SpatialData (zipped) .zarr
stores.
These scverse SpatialData examples are available through sources
You can install SpatialData.data using:
if(!requireNamespace("spatialdataR"))
BiocManager::install("spatialdataR")
if(!requireNamespace("SpatialData.data"))
BiocManager::install("SpatialData.data")You can also install the development version like so:
To interrogate our S3 bucket you will need paws.storage installed.
Any SpatialData dataset can be retrieved (once) into some location, and read into R.

You can also install the same data from different sources, including
the scverse’s spatialdata sandbox where SpatialData stores
are saved as Zarr v3.
