If you attend this years EGU in Vienna, please consider participating in the following short course:

*****************************************

SC1.25   IMAGE ANALYSIS INTRO

*****************************************

Convener: Renée Heilbronner  ---  Co-convener: Rüdiger Kilian 

It takes place on Thu, 11 April, 8.30 - 10.15, in room 2.31 (Brown level)

It is scheduled right before the Short course SC1.37 GRAIN SIZE ANALYSIS - 2D, 3D AND FRACTAL which takes place from 10:45 - 12.15, in the same room... and which you may also consider attending ...

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Description of short course:

Image analysis has become a standard tool for shape and fabric analysis of a wide range of rock types (sedimentary, magmatic and metamorphic) and for microstructure analysis of natural and experimental samples at all scales. From quantified shape fabrics, rock properties may be inferred and related to the processes that created them.

In the first half of the short course, some basic techniques are outlined, in the second half, there will be demonstrations of selected applications.

The following topics will be covered:

1) image acquisition and pre-processing

2) segmentation: from picture to bitmap

3) shape analysis of individual grains or particles

4) fabric and strain analysis: looking at volumes and surfaces

5) analysis of spatial distribution: from clustered to random to ordered

Demonstrations will be made using ImageJ and Image SXM. Note, however, that familiarity with either of these programs is not required. - This is a short course, not a workshop.
