Image Data Folder

The Image Data Folder is the location on your computer where your LI‑COR Acquisition data and images will be stored.

Use Different Folders for Empiria Studio® Software and LI‑COR Acquisition Software

• Your Empiria Studio data will be saved in a separate Data Folder.

• You cannot use the same folder as an Image Data Folder for LI‑COR Acquisition and as a Data Folder for Empiria Studio.

Best Practices for Using an Image Data Folder

• Do not edit the contents of the Image Data Folder (outside of LI‑COR Acquisition Software).

• Do not add files to the Image Data Folder.

• Do not export files from LI‑COR Acquisition Software to the Image Data Folder.

• Do not put your Image Data Folder on a network drive or in a folder that automatically syncs with the cloud. Software can be slow when accessing network folders, and data can be lost if multiple people access the data simultaneously.
