I realized that I might have potentially alienated some people when talking about automated process, FFT and the like. It was not my intention. I was thinking aloud while typing. So here is in lay terms what I was saying. If you look at specific areas where ripples are, you will see that there are ripples that are closely spaced, some are farther apart, some have clearly visible crests, some do not. But to your eyes they look different, do they? There are image processing and machine vision algorithms that can mimic this capability. FFT, wavelets, Gabor filters... They are not as god as the human eye, but they should be able to see the differences here. Writing a piece of code that does this can be pretty complex. Fortunately there are public domain packages that should be able to do this: ImageJ, the Intel Image Processing Library to name a couple.
Matlab ouf course can do that as well (but that is expensive!). IF we can do this, it would be great. If t gets too complicated, not enough time or resources are limited, I understand. It is a big problem even for people like me that spend their day dealing with it.
