Category ARRAY_DATA
Name:'ARRAY_DATA'
Parent category:
ARRAY_GROUP
Definition:
Data items in the ARRAY_DATA category are the containers for the array data items described in the category ARRAY_STRUCTURE. It is recognized that the data in this category needs to be used in two distinct ways. During a data collection the lack of ancillary data and timing constraints in processing data may dictate the need to make a 'miniCBF' nothing more than an essential minimum of information to record the results of the data collection. In that case it is proper to use the ARRAY_DATA category as a container for just a single image and a compacted, beam-line dependent list of data collection parameter values. In such a case, only the tags '_array_data.header_convention', '_array_data.header_contents' and '_array_data.data' need be populated.
