# FEI FEI-SEM TIFF format

Extensions: `.tif`, `.tiff`

Provide read support for TIFFs produced by an FEI SEM microscope.

This format is based on TIFF, and supports the same parameters.

FEI microscopes append metadata as ASCII text at the end of the file, which this reader correctly extracts.

## Parameters for get_data

discard_watermarkbool

  If True (default), discard the bottom rows of the image, which contain no image data, only a watermark with metadata.

watermark_heightint

  The height in pixels of the FEI watermark. The default is 70.
