Supporting data for: Ambient-pressure femtosecond laser ablation as a solid-phase sampling method for water ice

This dataset contains supporting video and crater-annotation data for the manuscript “Brief communication: Ambient-pressure femtosecond laser ablation as a solid-phase sampling method for water ice”. The dataset documents a 35 uJ femtosecond laser-ablation exposure series on water ice. It includes live ablation videos, post-ablation crater-scan videos, and manually annotated crater-analysis CSV files for exposure durations of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 s. The CSV files contain crater positions, visibility status, center coordinates, inner crater diameter measurements, outer/rim diameter measurements where applicable, and links to the corresponding crater-scan videos using relative paths. The archive also includes a README, a CSV column data dictionary, a file manifest mapping original filenames to cleaned upload filenames, and SHA-256 checksums. The associated analysis code is available at https://github.com/MarsRob/LA_crater_analyzer.
