The plane map file is a columnar text file that defines the logical layers for patterns. The file definition is described in https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/Atlas/FTKConfigFiles#Plane_map_PMAP, with the addition of the line > # logical at the top of the file, which denotes the total number of logical layers.

NB: There are a bunch of different layers floating around. My understanding is that

• detLayer: A detector element, i.e. a unique line in the plane map file
• physLayer: A layer index used in FPGATrackSim, a different 0-indexed series for each (pixel/strip) X (barrel/endcap) combination. Total number of physical layers = number of detector layers. The physLayer basically just breaks the detLayers into different series for each hit type and detector region.
• logiLayer: A logical layer corresponding to an AM bus, In general, layer with no other specifiers refers to a logical layer.
