Abstract :
We have developed a program running on the Windows platform which enhances the quality of two-dimensional images acquired by a scanning SQUID microscope. The program can also be used for image processing of data from other SQUID based systems, such as eddy current SQUID NDE systems. A general description of the program and the incorporated additional digital filters for removing image artifacts in the Fourier space is given. The user interface is presented as well as several examples of this software applications to real images.
