 This repository contains tutorials for the using the layered surface detection tool. Included is a Jupyter notebook entitled _LayeredSurfaceDetection_tutorial.ipynb_ which contains a short tutorial on applying the tool to a 2D dataset. A Python file containing some helper functions that are used in the tutorial is also included in _helpers.py_.
 
-These tutorials will hopefully give you an understanding of how to apply the Layered Surface tool to image data so that you can use the tool on your own datasets.
