Abstract
A system, method and media for locating and defining process sensitive sites isolated to specific geometries or shape configurations within chip design data. Once a systemic process sensitive site is identified, a 3D design checking deck is coded and executed through a design checker on physical design data. Target match shapes are produced and embedded back into the design data. Pictures, maps and coordinates of process sensitive sites are produced and sent to a website library for reference.
