In x3ptools: Tools for Working with 3D Surface Measurements

x3ptools 0.0.3

features

• x3p_snapshot lets you take a snapshot of the currently active rgl device. The extension of the file determines the format.
• x3p_mask_quantile adds a region to the mask of an x3p object corresponding to the area between two specified quantiles
• x3p_trim_na trim x3p to remove missing values along the edge of the surface matrix
• x3p_extract subset an x3p file based on specified mask values
• x3p_extract_profile extract data set containing profile between two interactively identified points on the surface of the scan
• x3p_select interactively select a rectangle on an x3p surface
• x3p_fuzzyselect repeatedly select a rectangle of interest, expand selection to include similar values based on robust linear model
• stl_to_x3p convert STL files of topographic surfaces to x3p files

minor functionality

• add functions in form of x3p_* to adhere to tidyverse conventions

bug fixes

x3ptools 0.0.2

features

• sample_x3p:
  • sample at different rates in x and y direction (using parameters m and mY)
  • sample at offset accessible through parameters offset and offsetY
• functionality to work with meta data:
  • x3p_show_xml to identify and show elements of the meta file based on names
  • x3p_modify_xml to modify individual elements
• functionality to overlay 3d surface data with color information:
  • adding/creating masks to overlay surfaces with color raster images
  • x3p_add_vline, x3p_add_vline, x3p_add_grid: add lines on top of rendered scan surface by manipulating the mask

minor functionality

• testing routines added with coverage > 90%
• print.x3p and head.x3p provide a succinct summary of scan meta information
• enabled URL read of x3p files
• include svg as an option for file save from image_x3p
• read_x3p and write_x3p check xml meta file for specification of float size
