Tiled is a service that enables secure, structured access to scientific data. It supports search, remote slicing, format conversion, and live streaming.
Tiled helps scientists to store, find, and access scientific data at scale. It provides a API that understands scientific data structures of varied types so users can slice, convert, and retrieve just what they need. Tiled is designed to run on a scientist's laptop or deploy at scale in a facility's data center.
Tiled is a fully open source project developed under a multi-institutional governance model.
Tiled enables scientists to:
- Search across metadata
- Slice remotely into arrays and tables
- Transcode data into the format they need
- Locate or download underlying data files or blobs (e.g. S3 buckets)
- Stream live data and "replay" recent data
- Upload or register datasets to add them to Tiled
With pip or uv, install "tiled[all]" or just "tiled[client]" if you only need
to access data (not run your own Tiled server).
With conda or pixi, install tiled or just tiled-client. Tiled is available
on the conda-forge channel, which pixi uses by default.
See Getting Started for more detailed installation instructions.
