Dear all, The following paper describes 'element specific maps', calculated by collecting data immediately above and below an absorption edge.
http://journals.iucr.org/d/issues/2005/05/00/he5321/index.html I have used this technique, and it works very well. If anyone is interested I have a set of scripts to take raw mosflm data, scale it and calculate these maps. best wishes James -- Dr. James W.

One would then use the signal both from the Bijvoet differences in the peak dataset plus the differences between the peak and low-energy datasets, which I think I have seen called "dispersive" differences. I guess this would be like a MAD map, but using pre-existing model phases--is there such an animal in the software, or would it even be helpful?
