Data Exports (Raw & Processed Data)¶
In addition to visual viewport sharing, CartoScope allows exporting tabular data and analysis outputs:
- Gene Data: Export gene expression matrices and transcript counts (see How to Export Gene Data).
- Factor Data: Download FICTURE factor weights and pseudobulk profile files (see How to Export Factor Data).
- ROI Data: Export polygon boundary coordinates and ROI expression metrics (see How to Export ROI Data).
