We have developed two software packages for the processing of electron diffraction patterns acquired on a slow-scan CCD camera. Automated indexing and processing of these electron diffraction patterns is possible using a program called AUTO. To obtain a set of reliable reflections, AUTO applies a number of corrections, which are necessary due to the acquisition of the patterns with a slow-scan CCD camera. To index and process unknown lattices in electron diffraction patterns obtained from, for instance, a new protein or a new crystal form, an interactive program called EDP is available. It supports indexing in an interactive manner through a graphical user interface. Processing of the electron diffraction pattern is done using a script created by EDP. Both packages run on UNIX platforms, with EDP requiring the X Window System.
我们开发了两个软件包，用于处理在慢扫描电荷耦合器件（CCD）相机上获取的电子衍射图样。使用名为AUTO的程序可以对这些电子衍射图样进行自动索引和处理。为了获得一组可靠的反射，AUTO应用了许多校正，这对于使用慢扫描CCD相机获取图样来说是必要的。为了对从例如新蛋白质或新晶体形式获得的电子衍射图样中的未知晶格进行索引和处理，可以使用名为EDP的交互式程序。它通过图形用户界面以交互式方式支持索引。电子衍射图样的处理使用EDP创建的脚本完成。这两个软件包都在UNIX平台上运行，EDP需要X Window系统。
