rastools is a small suite of utilities for converting data files obtained from SSRL (Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource) scans (.RAS and .DAT files) into images. Various simple manipulations (cropping, percentiles, histograms, color-maps) are supported. Most tools are command line based, but a Qt-based GUI is also included.
The project homepage <http://www.waveform.org.uk/rastools/>_ has links to
packages or instructions for all supported platforms.
The set of tools included is:
rasinfo dumps information obtained from the header of the scan file to
stdout
rasdump extracts channels from a scan file and dumps its data to a
standard format like CSV or Excel
rasextract extracts channels from a scan file, applies any simple
transforms specified (e.g. percentile) and writes the output as a standard
image format (PNG, TIFF, SVG, etc.)
rasviewer is a Qt-based GUI for viewing the channels of one or more scan
files. It supports all the transforms that rasextract supports and also
allows exporting of images
Further information on the tools can be found in the rastools documentation <http://rastools.readthedocs.org/>_.
