1. A method, comprising:
determining an imaging field of view (FOV) of a rotatable imaging system, including a size and/or a shape of the imaging FOV of the rotatable imaging system and a position of the imaging FOV relative to the rotatable imaging system;
determining a first location of the imaging FOV of the rotatable imaging system relative to an environment in which the rotatable imaging system is positioned; and
sending information indicating the size and/or the shape and the position of the imaging FOV of the rotatable imaging system as well as the first location of the imaging FOV of the rotatable imaging system relative to the environment to an external computing device.
