    During solid surface impact, a falling drop's energy is transformed into oscillations of its liquid/gas interface. We consider drop deposition during oblique impact in the capillary-ballistic regime characterized by high Reynolds number and moderate Weber number. We treat this as an inverse problem showing that post-impact observations of the frequency spectrum and modal partition of energy allow one to determine a drop's pre-impact characteristics and wetting properties. Our analysis is useful for quantifying contact-line dissipation during inertial spreading and can be used as a diagnostic technique for determining substrate wetting properties.
