    Read and write image data from and to TIFF files.

    Image and metadata can be read from TIFF, BigTIFF, OME-TIFF, STK, LSM, NIH,
    SGI, ImageJ, MicroManager, FluoView, SEQ and GEL files.
    Only a subset of the TIFF specification is supported, mainly uncompressed
    and losslessly compressed 2**(0 to 6) bit integer, 16, 32 and 64-bit float,
    grayscale and RGB(A) images, which are commonly used in bio-scientific imaging.
    Specifically, reading JPEG and CCITT compressed image data or EXIF, IPTC, GPS,
    and XMP metadata is not implemented.
    Only primary info records are read for STK, FluoView, MicroManager, and
    NIH image formats.

    TIFF, the Tagged Image File Format, is under the control of Adobe Systems.
    BigTIFF allows for files greater than 4 GB. STK, LSM, FluoView, SGI, SEQ, GEL,
    and OME-TIFF, are custom extensions defined by Molecular Devices (Universal
    Imaging Corporation), Carl Zeiss MicroImaging, Olympus, Silicon Graphics
    International, Media Cybernetics, Molecular Dynamics, and the Open Microscopy
    Environment consortium respectively.

    For command line usage run ``python tifffile.py --help``

    Known build errors
    ------------------
    On Windows, the error `Error:unable to find vcvarsall.bat` means that distutils is not correctly configured to use the C compiler. Modify (or create, if not existing) the configuration file `distutils.cfg` (located for example at `C:\\Python27\\Lib\\distutils\\distutils.cfg`) to contain::

      [build]
      compiler=mingw32
