  We describe an algorithm which has been developed to extract fine granularity
information from an electromagnetic calorimeter with strip-based readout. Such
a calorimeter, based on scintillator strips, is being developed to apply
particle flow reconstruction to future experiments in high energy physics.
Tests of this algorithm in full detector simulations, using strips of size 45 x
5 mm^2 show that the performance is close to that of a calorimeter with true 5
x 5 mm^2 readout granularity. The performance can be further improved by the
use of 10 x 10 mm^2 tile- shaped layers interspersed between strip layers.
