Helper function to stitch field coordinates together to form one complete picture
stitchFieldCoordinates( location_file, offset_file, cumulate_offset_x = F, cumulate_offset_y = F, field_col = "Field of View", X_coord_col = "X", Y_coord_col = "Y", reverse_final_x = F, reverse_final_y = T )
location_file | location dataframe with X and Y coordinates |
---|---|
offset_file | dataframe that describes the offset for each field (see details) |
cumulate_offset_x | (boolean) Do the x-axis offset values need to be cumulated? |
cumulate_offset_y | (boolean) Do the y-axis offset values need to be cumulated? |
field_col | column that indicates the field within the location_file |
X_coord_col | column that indicates the x coordinates |
Y_coord_col | column that indicates the x coordinates |
reverse_final_x | (boolean) Do the final x coordinates need to be reversed? |
reverse_final_y | (boolean) Do the final y coordinates need to be reversed? |
Updated location dataframe with new X ['X_final'] and Y ['Y_final'] coordinates
Stitching of fields:
1. have cell locations: at least 3 columns: field, X, Y
2. create offset file: offset file has 3 columns: field, x_offset, y_offset
3. create new cell location file by stitching original cell locations with stitchFieldCoordinates
4. provide new cell location file to createGiottoObject
