xpdAcq organization — xpdAcq documentation (original) (raw)

Welcome to xpdAcq organization!

We are a group focusing on developing software toolkits for powder diffraction experiments. Our focuses are, but not limited to, automation of experiments, real-time data analysis and metadata management which enables future data mining. We collaborate closely with NSLS-II software team, where is the home for many high quality software toolkits.

Currently we have released two Python packages:

• xpdAcq
  The package handles acquisition activities for experiment, ranging from executions to metadata management.
  For more information, please refer to xpdAcq full document.
  For a quick yet comprehensive introduction, please refer to xpdAcq quickstart.
• xpdAn
  The package provides a platform for live data analysis and visualization.
  For more information, please refer to xpdAn full document.

This group is lead by Professor Simon Billinge at Columbia University.
