We investigate the feasibility of studying in-medium properties of the ω meson in photoproduction experiments via the decay ω→π0γ. We use the GiBUU transport model to compare different methods of obtaining in-medium information, such as the invariant mass spectrum, transparency ratio, excitation function and momentum spectrum. We show that the final-state interaction of the pion poses a major obstacle for the interpretation of the invariant mass spectrum. We also demonstrate that the other three observables are fairly independent of final-state interactions and thus can give access to the ω in-medium properties.
