Import Ebsd Montage

Group (Subgroup)

Import/Export (Montage Import)

Description

This Filter will import a collection of EBSD data files (Edax .ang or Oxford .ctf) and roughly calculate the proper coordinates for each tile within the global reference frame. Each data file will be placed into it's own DataContainer. This filter uses the ReadAngData or ReadCtfData filters to import the data. The filenames need to be named with the following pattern.

[File Prefix]r[RowIndex]c[ColIndex][FileSuffix].ang

The user can set the name of the Cell and Ensemble Attribute Matrix that will be created in each DataContainer. The name of each DataContainer is based off the file used to populate the input data for that DataContainer.

A Montage object will also be created to hold the related DataContainers

Currently only EDAX .ang and Oxford Instruments .ctf files are supported.
