Explore LFP NWB creation

[danielsf]

As part of version 2 of the VBN data release, we are going to need to create NWB files for the LFP ("local field potential") data. There is, nominally, already code to do that in the SDK, though it was certainly written for VCN.

This script

/allen/aibs/informatics/danielsf/lfp_nwb/formal_lfp_nwb_generation.py

runs that code more-or-less as-is. It depends on this configuration file

/allen/aibs/informatics/danielsf/lfp_nwb/lfp_generation_config.json

The goal of this ticket is to generate a bunch of example LFP files using the code we have and submit them to Corbett and Shawn for comment.

Tasks

• [ ] Consult documentation to learn what the LFP data entails
• [ ] Generate NWB files
• [ ] Solicit comments from scientists about improvements/changes that need to be made for VBN release
• [ ] Open tickets encompassing the requested changes
