ixdat 0.1.0

The in-situ experimental data tool

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.

Documentation is at https://ixdat.readthedocs.io

ixdat has replaced the existing electrochemistry - mass spectrometry data tool, EC_MS, and will thus become a powerful stand-alone tool for analysis and visualization of data acquired by the equipment of Spectro Inlets and other EC-MS solutions. It will also replace the existing electrochemistry - synchrotron GIXRD data tool, EC_Xray when needed. Over time, it will acquire functionality for more and more techniques. Please help get yours incorporated!

In addition to a pluggable parser interface for importing your data format, ixdat it also includes pluggable exporters and plotters, as well as a database interface. A relational model of experimental data is thought into every level.

ixdat is shown in practice in a growing number of open repositories of data and analysis for academic publications:

• Tracking oxygen atoms in electrochemical CO oxidation - Part II: Lattice oxygen reactivity in oxides of Pt and Ir

  • Article: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.electacta.2021.137844

  • Repository: https://github.com/ScottSoren/pyCOox_public

• Dynamic Interfacial Reaction Rates from Electrochemistry - Mass Spectrometry

  • Article:

  • Repository: https://github.com/kkrempl/Dynamic-Interfacial-Reaction-Rates

ixdat` is free and open source software and we welcome input and new collaborators. Please help us improve!
