Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Techniques for efficiently setting up inspection, metrology, and review systems for operating upon semiconductor wafers are described. Specifically, this involves setting up recipes that allows each system to accurately inspect semiconductor wafers. The invention gathers pertinent information from these tools and presents the information to users in a way that greatly reduces the time required to complete a recipe. One system embodiment includes an inspection system and a review station that is communicatively linked such that the review station can read from and write to an entire set of data stored at the inspection system. The set of data includes image files of features detected by the inspection system.
