extract asset brain area from location field #1806

@bendichter

Description

@bendichter

NWB files have location fields:

  • ImagingPlane.location (optical physiology)
  • electrodes.location (extracellular electrophysiology)
  • IntracellularElectrode.location (intracellular electrophysiology)

These "locations" are brain areas, and we can populate asset-level metadata about brain area by scanning them. They often correspond exactly to Allen CCF brain area abbreviations, and can therefore be mapped directly to the MBAO ontology. See https://github.com/bendichter/analyze-locations/tree/main for details.
