alignhuge

Determines the rotation and transformation between images in a focal pair

alignhuge <image to align> <fixed reference> <output> [mrc8bit]

Parameters:


<image to align>First input (MRC only!)
<fixed reference>Second input (MRC only!)
<output><input 1> aligned to <input 2>
[mrc8bit]Output 8-bit MRC file to conserve space

Usage:

alignhuge im0221.mrc im0222.mrc

Description

This will determine the relative alignment parameters between two very large images. It's designed for use with 'identical' images (except for defocus), ie - a focal series. It will output the aligned image and display the rotation/translation parameters.

A compile-time option exists to determine scaling differences as well as rot/trans. The program must be recompiled to enable this behavior. On JEOL microscopes, there the scaling error is below the error limit for this program.
