xyExtract Graph Digitizer

The “xyExtract” is software to extract data from a 2D graph (up to 1500


points) contained in a bitmap file.

Step 1) Open the bitmap with the 2D graph. There are two options: open a bitmap
regarding I) a new project or II) a saved project previously.

Step 2) If would be a new project, define the axes. Put the cursor of the mouse on
the marks of the extremities of the axis, followed by clicks, in the sorted given
by following way:

a) One click on the mark of Xmin. Inform its value.

b) One click on the mark of Xmax. Inform its value. Correct Xmin if it is
necessary.

c) One click on the mark of Ymin. Inform its value.

d) One click on the mark of Ymax. Inform its value. Correct Ymin if it is
necessary.

After each click, use the “Adjustment” option to move the point (pixel to
pixel), if necessary.

Step 3) Define the points. Put the cursor on the center of each point and click the
mouse.

If you want, use the “Save Project” option on the “File” menu, for a posterior
opening of the work.

Step 4) Save the generated data file (txt).


Information on the Screen

A => coordinates of the last marked point.

B => position in pixels of the last marked point.

C => H-X is the angle among the X axis and the horizontal direction; X-Y is the angle
among the X and Y axes.

D => Scales: Lin is linear and Log is logarithmic.
