The napari hub is transitioning to a community-run implementation due to launch in June 2025.
Since October 1, 2024, this version is no longer actively maintained and will not be updated. New plugins and plugin updates will continue to be listed.

Data Inspection

napari-data-inspection

Data Inspection Plugin, designed to streamline file navigation and enhance the efficiency of data inspection.

A data inspection plugin for loading image tiles from multiple folders. With data loading and prefetching handled automatically, file navigation is streamlined to enable fast and efficient data inspection. Any number of folders for images and labels can be specified, and files are automatically paired based on their order — manual file selection is eliminated. Perfect for high-throughput inspection workflows and rapid dataset review, especially in semantic segmentation tasks.

Installation

# 1. Install napari if necessary
pip install napari[all]
# 2. Install the plugin
pip install napari-data-inspection

Prerequisites

Supported File Types

The following file types are supported: .nii.gz, .png, .b2nd, .nrrd, .mha, .tif, .tiff. If you want to add custom ones add a loader to src/napari_data_inspection/utils/data_loading.py.

Data Organization Requirements

Your data should be organized so that different images and different labels can be clearly distinguished—either by placing them in separate folders or by using consistent filename patterns (e.g., *_img for images and *_seg for labels). The number of files must match across all folders, as they are paired by order.
