Hi,

Is there a way to ask peakmax to output the volume of each electron density peak that it detects (or is there a reasonably straightforward way to do this via an alternative command line runnable approach?)

Cheers,

There might be a way to do it using some of the brilliant USF tools. A somewhat convoluted workaround would be to cut the piece of the map surrounding the peak, then converting it to mask using MAPMAN with cutoff of your choosing. You can then use MAMA's island_erase method to identify the main blob of density and count the nodes to get the volume.

You may want to look into MAPMAN peek command too. It allows both getting the interpolated density value at the peak position and integral density over volume surrounding it. If you make certain assumptions about the peak shape (gaussian?) you can deduce the peak "volume" from these two numbers.
