The invention relates to a method for providing at least one evaluation method for samples (2) in at least one optical application system (5) of a microscope-based application technology,
where the following steps are performed: developing the evaluation method at least by an automated training (130) of an evaluation means (60) for an evaluation (120) of a specific type of sample on the basis of the application technology by an optical training system (4), the training (130) determining a training information (200) which at least partially defines the evaluation method, at least the training information (200) for distributing (140) the evaluation method to the at least one application system (5), wherein the provision takes place as a function of the type of sample and of the application technology.
