Hello Wei,
Maps you see in Coot are three-dimensional functions calculated on the
grid. These functions are the finite resolution and finite quality
images of electron (or nuclear, depending experiment) density in the
crystal. They are calculated as a Fourier transform of Fourier map
coefficients. In most cases these Fourier map coefficients are
{2mFobs-DFmodel, PhiFmodel} and {mFobs-DFmodel, PhiFmodel}, that are
complex numbers. Refinement programs like Refmac or phenix.refine output
these map coefficients in MTZ formatted files, or you can calculated
them given Fobs and atomic model using standalone programs, such as
phenix.maps for instance.
Back to you original question: 'Create maximum entropy map' utility
expected from you one of these MTZ files.
Hope this helps,
Pavel
