# Radial Profile
|
||||
|
||||
Compute the azimuthally averaged radial profile from a centre point. The output x-axis is radius in physical xy units. Equivalent to gwy_data_field_angular_average used by Gwyddion's Radial Profile tool.
|
||||
Compute an **azimuthally averaged** profile around a centre point on a DATA_FIELD. At each radius, every pixel in the full 360° ring around the centre is averaged together, so the profile is direction-independent — there is no clockwise/counter-clockwise traversal and no start or end point along the ring. The output is a single 1-D profile: value vs. radius.

The dashed circle around the centre shows the outer radius used by the profile. Pixels beyond it are not included in the averaging.

## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Pixels are assigned to radial bins by Euclidean distance; bins near the centre contain fewer pixels and may be noisier.
|
||||
- Pixels are assigned to radial bins by Euclidean distance from the centre; inner bins contain fewer pixels and may be noisier.
|
||||
- Physical x-axis units come from the field's si_unit_xy; uncalibrated fields produce pixel-unit radii.
