    Abstract: The invention provides a method of obtaining a fingerprint model for modelling a spatial distribution of a performance parameter over a portion of a substrate, the method comprising: defining an initial fingerprint model related to the spatial distribution of the performance parameter over the portion as a parameterized combination of basis functions; determining parameter values for the parameterized combination of basis functions based on pre-knowledge, and determining the fingerprint model for modelling the spatial distribution of the performance parameter over the portion of the substrate, based on a measurement set representing the performance parameter over the portion of a set of one or more semiconductor substrates and the initial fingerprint model, whereby a ratio of at least two parameter values of the basis functions as determined in the initial fingerprint model is kept constant or at least part of the shape of the initial fingerprint model is maintained in the fingerprint model.
