Abstract
Planar images of powder particles or sand grains can be interpreted as ''figures'', i.e, equivalence classes of congruent compact sets. The paper describes a concept of set-valued means and medians and real-val ued variances for samples of such figures. In obtaining these results, the images are registered to have similar locations and orientations. The method is applied to three samples of sand grains.
