    • Data Publication: Differential interference contrast microscopy from a cross section of a fractured ASTM 1008 steel

    Metadata Updated: March 14, 2025

    This dataset contains 42 individual images that are part of a single sample. The individual images can be combined into a single image via image stitching. These data are provided as an example so that different image stitching methods may be tested. Some of the features of this data that make the image stitching challenging are: the color gradient across the screen due to the differential interference contrast technique, the deep scratches that exist on some of the images but may appear to change position due to the slight changes in lighting conditions between different images depending on position of the scratch on the image.
