title: Characterizing cell-type spatial relationships across length scales in spatially resolved omics data: data repository

description: CRAWDAD

Spatially resolved omics (SRO) technologies enable the identification of cell types while preserving their organization within tissues. Application of such technologies offers the opportunity to delineate cell-type spatial relationships, particularly across different length scales, and enhance our understanding of tissue organization and function. To quantify such multi-scale cell-type spatial relationships, we develop CRAWDAD, Cell-type Relationship Analysis Workflow Done Across Distances, as an open-source R package with source code and additional documentation at https://jef.works/CRAWDAD/.

During CRAWDAD's development, we generated simulated datasets and new cell-type annotations for human spleen data, provided here. The external datasets such as the mouse cerebellum, mouse embryo, mouse brain, and human breast cancer data used in the paper can be found in their original publication. See more information in CRAWDAD's data availability statement.

Simulated Datasets



sim.csv: the simulated data. Used in Figure 1 b-g, Supplementary Figure 1 a-c, and Supplementary Figure 9 a-b.

ext_sim.csv: the extended simulated data. Used in Supplementary Figure 1 d-f.

null_sim_visualization.csv: the null simulated data. Used to generate the plots Supplementary Figure 2 a-d.

null_sim_1.csv - null_sim_10.csv: the 10 null simulated datasets. Used to quantitatively compare CRAWDAD, Squidpy’s co-occurrence implementation, and Ripley’s K Cross.
