Running the STRATEGY option

In the GUI, click on the STRATEGY button

On the command-line, type STRATEGY.

In either case, determining a suitable strategy for data collection once you have a cell, orientation and crystal symmetry is straightforward.

Then run TESTGEN to check for overlaps

Notes:

If you have already collected the dataset then you will have, presumably, determined a suitable data collection strategy to give you the data that you need for your experiment. If you are at the data collection stage, on the other hand, it is important to collect the data in the best possible way. Mosflm has a STRATEGY option which calculates strategies for:

optimum unique completeness

optimum anomalous completeness

data with the crystal in this orientation given a previous data collection.

Options are available for dividing up the data collection into multiple segments (it may be more efficient to collect two smaller segments rather than one large one) and changing the number of overlapped reflections allowed, among others.
