10.6. List of atlases (and more) in afni_atlases_dist¶

This page provides a list of the overlays (atlases, masks, and more) in the “afni_atlases_dist.tgz” package that is distributed with AFNI code. Axial and sagittal images are shown for each. The listing is in alphabetical order.

Rather than copying around common atlas, template and other reference datasets, you can set an AFNI environment variable to specify that location with AFNI_GLOBAL_SESSION and AFNI_ATLAS_PATH in your “~/.afnirc” file. Then, AFNI programs will be able to find those files easily. For example, they will then automatically be present in the AFNI GUI overlay and underlay selection lists to load+visualize.

These datasets might change over time. Indeed, here we also include some datasets that we no longer distribute by default. These are still available, just by separate download. In some cases, the “retirement” from distribution may have been because it did not seem an optimal choice, so you might want to inquire about a more modern choice.

10.6.1. Atlases and masks in current afni_atlases_dist¶

This section contains integer-valued datasets. This includes popular whole-brain atlases, hemisphere-masks, and various subsets of regions.

10.6.2. “Other” datasets in current afni_atlases_dist¶

This section contains a menagerie datasets that are distributed in afni_atlases, particularly ones that are used as intermediate reference datasets for certain AFNI programs. For example, the afni_refacer_* datasets are used for defacing and refacing datasets in AFNI’s @afni_refacer_run. Not all of these datasets are integer-valued.

10.6.3. Older datasets, no longer distributed by default¶

This section contains integer-valued datasets that have previously been distributed in AFNI, but which are no longer included by default. In many cases, datasets here have been superseded or improved upon by others that are now distributed (see above). In other cases, they just seemed to be less widely useful. If users have questions about what might be a better alternative to datasets relegated here, please ping on the Message Board.
