NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

12       This manual page documents briefly the 3Depict command
13
14       3depict  is  a  program  that  allows for visualisation and analysis of
15       point datasets with associated spectral data. Specifically, the program
16       was  written  to handle the data associated with atom probe tomography,
17       but is applicable to other areas, such as astronomy, laser scanning and
18       any point-based data source.
19
20       Note  that the program is a best-effort system. It is by no means guar‐
21       anteed that the algorithms in this program  are  free  from  errors  in
22       implementation,  or  follow  conventions for any specific user-applica‐
23       tion.

OPTIONS

26       This program has no command line options, other than a sequence of data
27       or XML files to open, the XML files being containing a previous program
28       state (this may be generated from within the program's graphical inter‐
29       face). Currently the program can read "POS" (position) formatted files,
30       which are simply uncompressed sequences of 4-byte floats (IEEE 597)  in
31       (x,y,z,value) form. All other work is done through the graphical inter‐
32       face.
33
34       As a further note, the XML file format has not been stabilised for  the
35       0.0.x series; and may change between revisions.
