[NeXus-committee] non binding vote on recording multiple detectormodules

[Watts Benjamin]

[  ]  Use NXgeometry
[  ]  NXdetector_element
[  ]  Tobias Suggestion
[  ]  SNS Usage
[X ]  The General Case

In the case where the user wants to have several detector modules
logically combined into a single data array, describing the modules only
serves as a shorthand for describing the pixels (which are what really
matter for analysis). I don't agree that the image would be destroyed
though - the arrays describing the pixel coordinates/offsets just need
to have the same shape as an image-slice from the data array, rather
your suggestion of changing the data array so that each image becomes a
list.

Cheers,
Ben

Subject: [NeXus-committee] non binding vote on recording multiple
detectormodules

Please vote on your preferred solution to record multiple detector
modules and address the concerns raised by DECTRIS. 
The outcome will help to narrow down the discussion and allow us to
focus on technical detail (of required).

For more background see the mailing list archive
http://lists.nexusformat.org/pipermail/nexus/2012/thread.html and the
Wiki:
http://wiki.nexusformat.org/Main_Page/NXdetector_2012_10

To move on with the discussion and since this is not a binding motion,
we will close the vote next Wednesday, 14th November.

I prefer the following solution, described in more detail on the above
wiki page, for recording spatially separate detector modules:

[  ]  Use NXgeometry
[  ]  NXdetector_element
[  ]  Tobias Suggestion
[  ]  SNS Usage
[  ]  The General Case

Please indicate you choice by deleting entries or making with an X.
Multiple options are allowed at this point.
