Adxv can be used to display and analyze 2-D area detector data. It is optimized to display X-Ray crystallography diffraction images. The data may be displayed as a 1-D cross section, 2-D image or 3-D surface. Sequential images may be displayed as an animation. The magnification, contrast and color mapping are adjustable. Displayed data may be saved in a variety of formats including ASCII, SMV/IMG, TIFF, JPEG and Postscript.
