abstract: 'Minirhizotrons are widely used to observe and explore roots and their growth.
  This package provides the means to stitch images and divide them into depth layers.
  Please note that this R package was developed alongside the following manuscript:
  Stitching root scans and extracting depth layer information -- a workflow and practical
  examples, S. Kersting, L. Knüver, and M. Fischer. The manuscript is currently in
  preparation and should be citet as soon as it is available. This project was supported
  by the project ArtIGROW, which is a part of the WIR!-Alliance ArtIFARM – Artificial
  Intelligence in Farming funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology
