Course objectives
The student should gain an overall understanding of basic methods for analysis of height maps (height fields), image data and, in general, two-dimensional physical data obtained using imaging and scanning techniques. The student should understand the method principles and learn about a tool or tools for processing of such data.
Syllabus
  • Image data, height and data fields and their digital representation. An overview of useful software.
  • Interpolation.
  • Row and area levelling and background subtraction.
  • Statistical characteristics of the first order. Roughness description.
