0007    \brief   Interface for derived classes to provide object resolutions for PAT
0008
0009    This vitrtual base class is an interface for all derived classes that provide
0010    resolution factors for PAT. The following functions need to be implemented by
0011    any derived class:
0012
0013    * getResolution
0014
0015    a setup function is provided but might need to be re-implemented.
