FlyCircuit Dotprops

Dotprops for FlyCircuit neurons published in Costa et al. (2016). In brief, ~16k confocal images from the FlyCircuit dataset (Chiang et al., 2011) were registered (Jefferis et al., 2007) to an intersex template brain (FCWB, Costa et al. 2016), skeletonised and converted to dotprops using the R package <em>nat</em> (Bates et al., 2020). Dotprops represent neurons as points with associated tangent vectors (i.e. local headings). See Costa et al. (2016) for further details. Contents: <em>flycircuit_dotprops.zip</em> contains 16,129 dotprops as individual CSV files. File names correspond to FlyCircuit gene names. Units are in microns and neurons are in FCWB (FlyCircuit Whole Brain) template space. <em>meta.csv</em> contains a mapping between FlyCircuit gene and neuron names, and an integer identifier. See also <em>nat.flycircuit</em> for ready access to these dotprops and additional meta data.
