SOFAST Slice Plot Utility

[alhs6577]

Purpose

Adding slice plot utility to SOFAST post-processing.

Summary of changes

-Majority under StandardPlotOutput.py:
-Addition of curvature deviation as figure output
-Ability to save figure data (slope, slope deviation, curvature, curvature deviation, enclosed energy) as hdf5 output
-Addition of slice plot utility to generate multiple 2D slices in X or Y directions across slope/slope deviation/curvature/curvature deviation
-Addition of plot showing locations of slices
-Addition of plot showing comparison of measured and reference data for slope
-Addition of slice data saved as both hdf5 and csv output
-Addition of plot functionality for slice plot output including profile offsets and x-axis limits
-Addition of generic uncertainty bars to slice plot output figures (subject of future work)
-Update of ini file in sofast_fringe/single_facet example to support new changes
-Adjustments to VisualizeOrthorectifiedSlopeAbstract.py to allow data output

Implementation notes

-Additions tested using sofast_fringe/single_facet example.

Submission checklist

• Target branch is develop, not main
• Existing tests are updated or new tests were added
• opencsp/test/test_DocStringsExist.py are verified to include this change or have been updated accordingly
• .rst file(s) under doc/ are verified to include this change or have been updated accordingly

The code looks good!

Try running this command in your OpenCSP directory and it should fix at least the black format test failing:

$ black -C -S .

I am also seeing some file not found errors for the ubi8-ci and windows2022-ci tests. Let me take a closer look at those.

Hey Alan, The ubi8 and Windows test are failing because there seems to be a missing docstring on line 614 of StandardPlotOutput.py (opencsp/common/lib/csp/StandardPlotOutput.py). If you add a simple docstring on that line, like:

"""Plots combined measured reference slopes"""

That should fix that failure.

Me and Alan worked on this, there was a problematic function call, it was a combined measured reference plot function issue. All tests are now passing, I will update the branch and get this merged in soon.

All tests are passing now and everything looks good, Thanks Alan! I will go ahead and merge into develop.
