TIFF Metadata Clarification

Hi! You state:

Task 1: One .tif file with segmentation results and metadata, including XResolution, YResolution, SMinSampleValue (excluding background), and SMaxSampleValue.

However, in the baseline repo, you have:

 ('MinSampleValue', 'I', 1, int(1)),
  ('MaxSampleValue', 'I', 1, int(max_val))

Should we be using S[Min/Max]SampleValue or [Min/Max]SampleValue?

Thank you!

Hi Rictoo,

I see you already were able to upload a functional container so I guess you already figured a part out. Regarding why we need to use it: It does not matter whether MinSampleValue or SMinSampleValue is used (same for MaxSampleValue/SMaxSampleValue). This is because in GC's image build source code, the SMin/SMax-value will be used as a fallback if the Min/Max value is not given. See: https://github.com/DIAGNijmegen/rse-panimg/blob/main/panimg/image_builders/tiff.py in the function get_min_max_sample_value(). It is best to use MinSampleValue and MaxSampleValue like we do in our code (also suggested by GC).

Good luck with the challenge and thank you for joining!

Kind regards, Mark

Thank you for the help Mark, that's perfectly clear! :)
