Francis,
I would like to bring your attention to our paper in Acta Cryst D Volume
66 (6), 741-744 (2010) where we deal with spots under the ice-rings. We
have been very successful in eliminating the ice-rings and recover the
data underneath. If you are interested you can request the Python script
from Michael Chapman at OHSU.

rings, Michael S. Chapman and^^Thayumanasamy Somasundaram
If you need help please e-mail me outside the CCP4BB.

All,
So I have two intense ice rings where there appear to be lattice spots in
between them.
I understand that any reflections that lie directly on the ice ring are
useless, however, how do software programs (HKL2000, d*Trek, mosflm, XDS) deal
with these intermediate spots?
It would seem to me that employing a 'resolution cut off' just before the ice
ring (on the low resolution side) would be improper, as there are spots on the
high resolution side of the ice. (see enclosed .tiff)
In fact, how do these programs deal with spots lying on ice rings? Are they
rejected by some algorithm by those programs during integration, or is it up to
the scaling/merging (by SCALA for example) step to deal with them?
Thanks!
