Examples of 3D information both from electron tomography of biological macromolecules and from medical imaging are already included in this development. This type of structural information is crosslinked, whenever applicable, to other sources of information, such as bibliographies. The solution we present here is sufficiently general to be applicable to data in a number of different fields of biomedical science. ; Supported, in part, by Spanish DGICYT Plan General de PromociOn del Conocimiento, grant number PB91- 0910 (to JMC), by the European Molecular Biology Network (EMBNet, European Union BRIDGE project number BlOT CT-910273) (to JMC), and by the National Science Foundation grant number BIR-9219043 (to JF). We acknowledge discussions on the general issue of 3D data bases with the participants of the 1993 Gordon Conference on 3D Electron Microscopy
