RTI Highlight Count Sufficiency Checker for Dome Capture
Check whether a reflectance transformation imaging dome capture provides enough highlight positions against a configurable recommended minimum of 24.
Description
Check whether a reflectance transformation imaging dome capture provides enough highlight positions against a configurable recommended minimum of 24.
RTI Highlight Count Sufficiency Checker for Dome Capture: Check whether a reflectance transformation imaging dome capture provides enough highlight positions against a configurable recommended minimum of 24.
When to use RTI Highlight Count Sufficiency Checker for Dome Capture
Use this epigraphic utility to apply a stated parsing, transcription, measurement, dating, classification, or documentation rule consistently while preparing inscriptions for scholarly review.
- Highlights
- Number of captured highlight positions.
- Recommended minimum
- Recommended minimum highlight count for the capture.
How RTI Highlight Count Sufficiency Checker for Dome Capture works
Check whether a reflectance transformation imaging dome capture provides enough highlight positions against a configurable recommended minimum of 24. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- Sufficient
- Whether the highlight count meets the recommended minimum.
- Surplus
- Highlights above (or below, if negative) the recommended minimum.
- Adequacy ratio
- Highlight count divided by the recommended minimum.
Limitations and assumptions
- RTI, raking light, and multispectral notes describe capture conditions rather than guarantee a reading. Illumination geometry, calibration, wavelength, registration, processing, surface reflectance, and operator interpretation affect visible features.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Retain the photograph, squeeze or scan, diplomatic transcription, provenance, dimensions, uncertainty marks, and corpus identifiers with the result. Confirm ambiguous cases against the relevant corpus, Leiden conventions, parallel inscriptions, and specialist judgment.
