Use Pod width sensibly #2

Closed maxf130 closed 5 years ago

maxf130 commented 5 years ago

We now have access to the pod width at all z heights. Plot it against other parameters, output it in pod data.

maxf130 commented 5 years ago

We have the major and minor axis diameters at every z height. Using the major axis diameter naively as pod width is probably fine. A refinement:

  1. Calculate the angle of the pod with respect to the central axis of the scanneras a function of z height. This will be two angles, the inclination and the in what direction it is inclined.
  2. Correct the major axis diameter to account for the fact that we are not measuring the minimal distance across the pod.

This would require getting not just major and minor axis diameters, but also their orientation.
