Introduction¶
ixdat
provides a powerful object-oriented interface to experimental data,
especially in-situ experimental data for which it is of interest to combine data obtained
simultaneously from multiple techniques.
In addition to a pluggable reader
interface for importing your data format, it
includes pluggable exporters and plotters, as well as a database interface.
For the philosophy behind ixdat, see Extended concept.
ixdat
is free and open source software and we welcome input and new collaborators.
See Developing ixdat.
