- A read-in and visualization tool for PDS4 data
- Available stand-alone, no installation necessary, on Windows, Mac and Linux
- Supports all** PDS4 data (images, spectra, arrays, tables)
Features
- Summary View: displays a summary of the available data structures in the label, giving various options to view them
- Image View: displays N-dimensional images and spectra, allowing for zoom, rotation, pan, axis-inversion, colormap manipulation, scaling, etc.
- Table View: displays all PDS4 tables and arrays as tables, including arbitrarily nested GROUP fields (sub-tables).
- Plot View: allows plotting PDS4 table columns against each other, including error bars.
- Label View: Easy, human-readable, access to meta-data (such as structure labels, display settings and spectral characteristics, etc.)
