PDViPeR: A data manipulation tool for Powder Diffraction

PDViPeR (Powder Diffraction Visualisation, Processing and Reporting) is a BSD-licensed data manipulation and plotting tool for powder diffraction data.

Features

  • Input formats: XYE, XY
  • Plotting
    • Raw data
    • Stacked (y-offset) plot
    • 3D waterfall plot
    • TIFF/PNG/JPG raster output
    • PDF/SVG/EPS vector output
  • Data processing
    • Merging
    • Scaling
    • Normalisation
    • Regridding
    • Zero/reference angle correction

Future features

  • Metadata collation

Requirements

PDViPeR relies on the (free) Enthought Python Distribution for easy one-click installation of dependencies.

Installation

To install the correct pre-compiled binaries for the peak fitting routines run the install.sh (Linux) or install.bat (Windows) script after cloning the project. In some case you may get a message about fortran code needing to be compiled by hand. You will need the f2py tool and a fortran compiler (such as GFortran) installed. Then perfom the following steps: - cd to the fsource directory - run 'scons'

Run

To run PDViPeR, just call python on app.py from the cloned project directory:

$ python app.py

Version History

2.0 -Improvements in speed for reading a large number of datasets and 2D surface plots
-Reading of Bruker V3 RAW format data

1.1 -Improved handling of filename conventions for robustness

1.0 -Automatic curve fitting and manual curve definition for background subtraction
-Peak detection and fitting
-Rescaling and offset of both axes -Output of all active datasets into .xyz format
0.2 -Changed 2d surface plot rendering method
-More robust file renaming of processed files -Data converted to reciprocal-space units are now supported by all plot types -Improved behaviour of 3d waterfall plot quality setting

0.1 -Initial release

Known Issues

  • 2d surface plot sometimes literally "loses the plot" when zooming. The symptom of this is that zooming occasionally shows a blank window. Workaround: If this occurs, click back to the Stacked plot then click back to 2d surface.
