Package: OSTA.data
Title: OSTA book data
Depends: R (>= 4.5)
Version: 1.5.0
Description: 'OSTA.data' is a companion package for the "Orchestrating
        Spatial Transcriptomics Analysis" (OSTA) with Bioconductor
        online book. Throughout OSTA, we rely on a set of publicly
        available datasets that cover different sequencing- and
        imaging-based platforms, such as Visium, Visium HD, Xenium (10x
        Genomics) and CosMx (NanoString). In addition, we rely on
        scRNA-seq (Chromium) data for tasks, e.g., spot deconvolution
        and label transfer (i.e., supervised clustering). These data
        been deposited in an Open Storage Framework (OSF) repository,
        and can be queried and downloaded using functions from the
        'osfr' package. For convenience, we have implemented
        'OSTA.data' to query and retrieve data from our OSF node, and
        cache retrieved Zip archives using 'BiocFileCache'.
