Where can I find the documentation?
A good place to start is to look at the IPython Notebooks in the
examplefolder. More documentation may be found by looking at the comments in the source code and the docstrings. -
How is the software structured?
The calculation is performed within the python object PointObject(). This object loads other objects for other advanced calculations like clustering, contour fitting, and curvature fitting. The advantage of this approach is that the object is aware of the steps that have been run. On the same time, by saving this object one saves the whole state of the current work. The computations are thus done step by step and individual steps can be repeated and optimised if necessary without the need for a complete restart.

Are there additional folders/files that I need to run PointObject
Yes. To be able to generate .mp4 movies from the results you need the ffmpeg binaries in a folder called
external. It is also recommended to create foldernotebooksanddatain the PointObject folder so that referencing the data and starting the IPython Notebooks can be done with relative paths. It is of course also possible to put the data somewhere else, however, absolute paths pointing to the data are necessary in that case.
