Some file formats store data for multiple patterns ("events") within a single file.
Information about the layout of the file data can be included in the geometry file.
This allows CrystFEL to unambigously identify data blocks which contain

CrystFEL assumes that the data block defined by the 'data' property has a dimensionality equal to the axis with the highest value of \fIn\fR defined by the 'dim' property, and requires the user to provide information about each of the axes in the data block. When no 'dim' property is defined in the geometry file, CrystFEL assumes the data block to be 2-dimensional, with the two axes encoding slow scan and fast scan information respectively.
-Note that this means you can assign the fast scan coordinates to the slow scan axis of the data block, and vice versa! This "quirk" helps backwards compatibility with geometry files from older versions of CrystFEL.
