# Data handling
Dealing with volumetric data can be done by `qim3d` for the most common image formats available. This includes loading, saving and file conversions.

Currently, it is possible to directly load `tiff`, `h5`, `nii`,`txm`, `vol` and common `PIL` formats using one single function.

Additionally, synthtetic volumetric data can be generated using the `generate` module.
