Introduction

Tomwer provides tools to automate acquisition and reconstruction processes for tomography. The package includes:

• A library to individually access each acquisition process.

• Graphical User Interface (GUI) applications to control key processes such as reconstruction and data transfer, which can be executed as standalone applications.

• An Orange add-on to help users define custom workflows (Orange3).

Tomwer relies on Nabu for tomographic reconstruction.

Note: Currently, the software is only compatible with Linux.
