The main goal of this software tool is to analyse tabular data generated by X-Ray Fluorescence spectrometers within the scope of analysing writing, painting, and supports materials of written artefacts. The main tasks achieved by this software tool are:
Process the generated tabular data according to user-defined settings for manual inspection.
Generate a table to be used for scatter plots.
Calculate distances between different measurements using Euclidean distance measure (L2).
Process multiple measurements per source per folio based on user selection.
Calculate the average, max and min values of multiple measurements from the same folio and source.
Specify energy ranges to be included and excluded from the spectrum.
The research for this software was funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) under Germany´s Excellence Strategy – EXC 2176 ‘Understanding Written Artefacts: Material, Interaction and Transmission in Manuscript Cultures’, project no. 390893796. The research was conducted within the scope of the Centre for the Study of Manuscript Cultures (CSMC) at Universität Hamburg.
