#What is our biggest problem?

Right now it appears that our biggest problems are:
* We need to identify how we are going to analyze the data


#What can we do now?

Right now we can:
* Start playing with data (images) in Matlab; e.g. changing colors, contrasts, gray scale, etc.
* Start planning what options we have for processing this data


#What can we do within two weeks?
* Process images
* Quantify microstructure
* Create a reduced-order representation of microstructure
