Lucy Pringle (page credit) · other published by cropcirclephotographs.co.uk — A formation in the same field as formation uk00ds comprising a central circle divided into curved segments and three outlying circles arranged in a triangular formation. A thin ring goes around each outlying circle and a thin ring goes through each outer circle around the main formation.. One of 2 images on this record.

Reported 13 August 2000 in wheat at Broadbury Banks, Wiltshire. Two archives recorded it, and they give the same date.

Geometry

1 diagram file(s) on this page. measured from the diagram itself, and experimental: the extractor's rotational order is right on 88.8 % of a 200-diagram hand-labelled set against a gate of 90 %, so read a number here beside the picture rather than instead of it.

diagramrotational symmetryelementsringsmirrorfill
cc 452f7989 ≈ 3-fold score 0.964 1 3 0.886 0.289

Experimental, and marked ≈ wherever it appears. These numbers are read off a drawing, not off the field: the extractor's rotational order agrees with a hand-labelled set on 88.8 per cent of 200 diagrams against a gate of 90 per cent, its element count is within one on 97.5 per cent, and its ring count is not calibrated at all. Nothing in the analysis tree is derived from the rotational order while that gate is unmet.

Diagrams that look like these: cc 452f7989— the nearest by perceptual hash. The whole archive is browsable by shape in the shape section, and this formation's own diagrams go straight into that grid: show them in the grid.
