Zusammenfassung:Methods for processing data from a metrology process and for obtaining calibration data are disclosed. In one arrangement, measurement data is obtained from a metrology process. The metrology process includes illuminating a target on a substrate with measurement radiation and detecting radiation redirected by the target. The measurement data includes at least a component of a detected pupil representation of an optical characteristic of the redirected radiation in a pupil plane. The method further includes analyzing the at least a component of the detected pupil representation to determine either or both of a position property and a focus property of a radiation spot of the measurement radiation relative to the target.
