Quick start to guide to using the DAWN mapping perspective to visualise data from I05-1 

Viewing Map Data

  1.  Start DAWN (module load dawn on a diamond linux workstation or download from dawnsci.org)
  2. Open the Mapping perspective (Window/Perspective/Open Perspective/Other... then select mapping from the list)
  3. Mapping perspective should now be shown

  4. Open a mapping scan (File, Open Map File... or drag from the operating system file explorer into the Mapped Data table)
  5. The file should automatically load the Counts Per Second map, clicking on this map should show the analyser image associated with the pixel of the CPS map clicked.

  6. Multiple maps covering similar areas of the sample can be loaded for viewing at the same time.

Basic Processing of Map Data

  1.  On the plot showing the detector image (Which changes when you click on the map, in the Detector Data tab), open the tool menu (wrench icon with axis) and select Processing Image

  3. This tool allows you to generate new maps by averaging data in a specific region, or from the difference between two regions, the data can also be integrated across all angles to 1D
  4. Click on the small yellow start to see the list of all processing steps and select Box Mean

  5. Select the Box Mean entry and press the live setup button

  6. In the dialog that appears, move the box to cover the region to be averaged and press ok

  7. Click the yellow star again and this time add Image Integration (when you click the star you should be able to start typing image to filter down the options)
  8. The Processing Image tool window should now show a 1D plot against energies
  9. Pressing the "Run" button (near the live setup button) will cause this processing to be done to all images (select a suitable location for the processed data to be saved, the data processing may take a long time)
