Abstract
Several analytical methods of electron, X-ray and ion microscopy are now ca pable of generating images containing an entire spectrum at each pixel. The se spectrum-images require new software tools for visualisation, classifica tion and analysis. This paper outlines a new method of visualisation for sp ectrum-images and two image classification methods that can be used to iden tify the phases present in the sample.
