Choices in Data collection and Processing

Some notes on choices in data collection.

Collecting optimum X-ray diffraction data involves a number of choices and compromises, including choice of crystal, source, rotation range, exposure time and programs for integration and scaling. This paper presents a series of questions which should be considered in planning a data-collection experiment.

Data collection and processing

MicroED data collection and processing

MicroED, a method at the intersection of X-ray crystallography and electron cryo-microscopy, has rapidly progressed by exploiting advances in both fields and has already been successfully employed to determine the atomic structures of several proteins from sub-micron-sized, three-dimensional crystals. A major limiting factor in X-ray crystallography is the requirement for large and well ordered...

Freeway Data Collection, Storage, Processing, and Use

The paper begins with a brief discussion of issues that must be resolved in building a freeway data management system. Following this is a description of the design choices that dealt with these issues in a functioning system for California freeways. The system is called PeMS. Some concrete uses of PeMS are presented next. These uses imposed the functional requirements that led to the design ch...

Data collection, processing, validation, and verification.

The collection, processing, validation, verification, formatting, filing, and storage of the required input data are some of the most important components in the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Radiation Dose Reconstruction Program. Without question, the quality and scientific validity of the reconstructed dose estimates are totally dependent on these aspects of th...
