X-ray cross-correlation analysis (XCCA) is a suite of techniques for analyzing correlations within x-ray scattering datasets. In particular, analysis of angular correlations within the 2D detector image can be used to isolate structural information that would be lost in a conventional circular-averaged 1D curve. Thus, even for nominally isotropic materials (powder-like sample), information about local symmetry (and thus packing motifs or unit cell) can be extracted from the data.

Angular correlation information can also be mined to reconstruct the three-dimensional reciprocal-space from individual 2D detector snapshots. That is, XCCA methods can be exploited to co-align scattering frames, registering them into the 3D scattering volume. This is conceptually similar to reciprocal-space mapping, but instead of directly reconstructing reciprocal-space by merging images, this is done in a statistical sense (because the relative alignment of frames is not known).
