See paper and log file in the folders for detailed information on experimental parameters. Subfolder C001H001S0001 contains raw images. Subfolder reference contains raw images. Subfolders a, k, w, q, UPh, slopes and plots are required for saving data during processing (see MATLAB code for detail). Subfolder slopes contains processed mean slope maps and example instantaneous slope maps. log.txt is required for processing and must not be altered. Folder transducer contains the pressure transducer data. Folder vibrometer contains vibrometer data. Folder codes contains the MATLAB codes required for processing deflectometry and LDV data.
