The Biological Observation Matrix (BIOM) format
===============================================

[![biom-format CI](https://github.com/biocore/biom-format/actions/workflows/python-package-conda.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/biocore/biom-format/actions/workflows/python-package-conda.yml)

The BIOM file format (canonically pronounced *biome*) is designed to be a general-use format for representing counts of observations (e.g., OTUs, KO categories, lipid types) in one or more biological samples (e.g., microbiome samples, genomes, metagenomes).

Further details can be found at http://biom-format.org.
