Correlative Electron Microscopy Software
Thermo Scientific Maps Software is an imaging and correlative workflow software suite compatible with the full line of Thermo Scientific SEM, DualBeam (FIB SEM) and TEM platforms.
Scientists and researchers rely increasingly on nanoscale observations to inform the latest advances in research and analysis. It has, however, become apparent that high-resolution observations lose much of their utility in the absence of the larger macroscopic context. Observations from multiple sources must be linked, providing the necessary multi-scale and multi-modal insight for truly valuable data.
Maps Software provides a powerful imaging workflow automation package within an easy-to-use and robust platform. With just a few clicks, you can collect impactful data while preserving the context of your observations.
Multi-scale imaging automation
Whether its scanning electron microscopy analysis in SEM and DualBeam tools or transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Maps Software enables automated 2D imaging for a variety of applications, from acquiring large image mosaics to scheduling routine imaging tasks for off times (overnight, weekends).
- Acquire up to four simultaneous signals, automatically (STEM/SEM)
- Run multiple samples in series to increase system productivity
- Choose rectangular, circular or custom shapes for mapping acquisition (STEM/SEM)

Correlative microscopy
With the ability to correlate optical and electron microscope data and easy navigation from SEM to TEM, Maps Software allows you to obtain the necessary context that drives your research and development. Use multi-modal data to aid in interpretation and navigation, ensuring you are always collecting the right data from the right location.
- Import 2D and 3D data from any source
- Quickly generate context for the entire sample grid or targeted region of interest
- Register imagery from other modalities (e.g. energy-dispersive spectroscopy, secondary electron signal, electron backscatter diffraction, etc.)
- Integrate observations in a multi-scale, multi-layered visualization environment
- Align data with system stages using any Thermo Scientific EM platform
