title: 'spatialdataR: Representation of Python''s spatialdata in R'
version: 0.99.41
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.spatialdataR
abstract: R interface to Python/scverse's 'spatialdata' framework for unified spatial
  omics data handling. Adheres to OME-NGFF standards, providing lazy, on-disk representations
  for multiscale images and labels (ZarrArray), as well as points and shapes (DuckDB-backed
  tables). Includes handling of coordinate transformation systems and spatial utilities
  for cropping, masking, and querying. Integrates tabular annotations as 'SingleCellExperiment's
  (via 'anndataR'), enabling interoperable spatial omics workflows across R and Python.
