Project Directory Setup

The image directories used in image and diffraction processing must follow a particular convention:

• the base of the image must be the name of the directory, and the image itself is simply the base with the .tif extension added, within that directory
• the base should be easily described by a mask, but obviously still be unique per image
• a single project.xml? file is contained in the top-level

We usually adhere to the convention of using the base as XXXTTNNNNN, where XXX is some three character abbreviation, TT is the (nominal) tilt angle that the image was recorded at, and NNNNN is some numerical id.

For example:

ABC0000001/
  ABC0000001.tif
ABC1500302/
  ABC1500302.tif
ABC4500511/
  ABC4500511.tif
