Reconstruction search and retrieval by metadata. A, Screenshot of the drop-down menus illustrating a query based on species and strain, morphological class and subclasses, and a histological detail, matched by 20 cells. B, Organization of the pop-up results requested as a “summary” with images and selected information (individual cells are hyperlinked and can be selected/deselected with toggle clicks).

Morphometric content-based queries. A, In a search by morphometry, available geometrical parameters are selected along with appropriate numerical ranges, facilitated by an optional dynamical overlay of representative values. B, In this example, the user chose to return results organized by brain region.

Available data in NeuroMorpho.Org. A, An individual neuron page, including download links of the raw and processed data files and information logs, images and options for dynamic displays, and experimental, literature, and morphometric details. B, Distribution of the 1160 reconstructions available in version 1.1 by major “browse” features.
