Debian Science Data acquisition packages

csvkit is a suite of command-line tools for converting to and working with CSV, the king of tabular file formats.

It is inspired by pdftk, gdal and the original csvcut tool by Joe Germuska and Aaron Bycoffe.

If you need to do more complex data analysis than csvkit can handle, use agate.

This package provides the command-line tools.

The Engauge Digitizer tool assists in interactively extracting numbers from images of graphs. Conceptually, it is thus the opposite of a graphing tool that converts data points to graphs. It provides assistance in enhancing the image quality and matching the data points. Engauge Digitizer is used by individuals such as grad students and researchers as well engineers and employees in large government and commercial organizations for processing single files but also managing databases of thousands of image files.

Features of Engauge Digitizer include:

• Automatic grid line removal
• Automatic point and axis matching
• Automatic curve tracing
• Image processing for separating important details from background information
• A wizard providing an interactive tutorial to explain the basic steps
• Multiple coordinate systems in the same image can be digitized in advanced mode
• Cubic spline interpolation between points gives more accurate curves with fewer points
• Handling of Cartesian, polar, linear and logarithmic graphs
• Support for drag-and-drop and copy-and-paste
• Context sensitive help, user manual and tutorials explaining every feature
• Preview windows to give immediate feedback while modifying settings
• Automated line and point extraction to rapidly digitizes data

The hkl library is a framework for diffraction computation and diffractometer control, heavily used at the SOLEIL synchrotron. It supports various types of diffractometer geometry: Eulerian 4-circle, Eulerian 6-circle, kappa 4-circle, kappa 6-circle, and z-axis geometry. For each of these it provides several numerically computed modes, such as bisector and constant psi.

This package provides a gui on top of the hkl library.

libfreenect is a cross-platform library that provides the necessary interfaces to activate, initialize, and communicate data with the Kinect hardware. Currently, the library supports access to RGB and depth video streams, motors, accelerometer and LED and provide binding in different languages (C++, Python...)

This library is the low level component of the OpenKinect project which is an open community of people interested in making use of the Xbox Kinect hardware with PCs and other devices.

This is the development package containing the libraries and header for software development with libfreenect.

The GetData Project is the reference implementation of the Dirfile Standards, a filesystem-based, column-oriented database format for time-ordered binary data. The Dirfile database format is designed to provide a fast, simple format for storing and reading data.

This package contains the "checkdirfile" and "dirfile2ascii" tools.

lxi-tools is collection of open source software tools that enables control of LXI-compatible instruments such as modern oscilloscopes, power supplies, spectrum analyzers etc.

Contains the programs ncdump and ncgen which convert NetCDF files to ASCII and back, respectively. NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is an interface for scientific data access and a freely-distributed software library that provides an implementation of the interface. The netCDF library also defines a machine-independent format for representing scientific data. Together, the interface, library, and format support the creation, access, and sharing of scientific data.

This package is a transitional dummy package and can be safely removed.

Open3D is an open-source library that supports rapid development of software that deals with 3D data. The Open3D frontend exposes a set of carefully selected data structures and algorithms in both C++ and Python. The backend is highly optimized and is set up for parallelization.

This package provides additional tools for data processing.

The VISA standard provides a common interface for communication with test and measurement equipment.

This package provides Python 3 bindings for VISA.

Sardana is a Supervision, Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for scientific installations. It is written in Python and based on the TANGO library. The hardware control and data acquisition routines can be accessed via an IPython console and a generic graphical user interface (both of which are easily extensible by the user).

segyio is a fast and practical library for reading and writing seismic data in SEG-Y format. segyio is random access oriented for modern computers with simple read/write primitives on lines.

This package contains useful shell programs.

Vnlog is a trivially-simple log format consisting of an ASCII table with comments and labelled fields. This package provides tools to process and manipulate such logs. The tools are:

vnl-filter selects a subset of the rows/columns in a vnlog and/or to manipulates the contents. This is effectively an awk wrapper.

vnl-sort, vnl-uniq, vnl-join, vnl-tail and vnl-ts are wrappers around the corresponding commandline tools

vnl-align aligns vnlog columns for easy interpretation by humans

vnl-make-matrix converts a one-point-per-line vnlog to a matrix of data

xlsx files are zip archives where spreadsheet data is stored. In order to process a file, various bits inside the archive need to be located. This utility uses the Expat SAX parser to collect the strings into a simple dictionary, keyed by their relative position in the XML file. This makes it possible to process files of any size.

xyscan is a tool for the scientist in the need to extract data points, i.e. numeric values, from a plot. It allows you to scan the plots and extract data points including the size of the error bars (both in x and y). It can handle plots with linear and logarithmic scales. In fact xyscan can be used for extracting numeric values from any kind of 2D technical drawings.

BINoculars is a tool for data reduction and analysis of large sets of surface diffraction data that have been acquired with a two-dimensional X-ray detector. The intensity of each pixel of a two-dimensional detector is projected onto a three-dimensional grid in reciprocal-lattice coordinates using a binning algorithm. This allows for fast acquisition and processing of high-resolution data sets and results in a significant reduction of the size of the data set. The subsequent analysis then proceeds in reciprocal space. It has evolved from the specific needs of the ID03 beamline at the ESRF, but it has a modular design and can be easily adjusted and extended to work with data from other beamlines or from other measurement techniques.

GNU Data Language (GDL) is a free IDL (Interactive Data Language) compatible incremental compiler. It has full syntax compatibility with IDL 7.1. IDL is a registered trademark of ITT Visual Information Solutions. From IDL 8.0, the following language elements are supported:

• FOREACH loop
• negative array indices
• garbage collection pointers and objects
• call methods on an object using "." (e. g. object.aMemberProcedure,arg1)

The file input output system is fully implemented. GUI support (widgets) is officially provided, but it's not complete yet.

This package contains the main commandline and interpreter frontend.

The gpsd service daemon can monitor one or more GPS devices connected to a host computer, making all data on the location and movements of the sensors available to be queried on TCP port 2947.

With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications can share access to devices without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than the different standards emitted by GPS devices.

This also includes common tools ubxtool and gpsctl for device configuration of the local hardware as well as a ntpshmmon to check generated refclock data.

This is a transitional package to ease upgrades to the python3-tango package. It can be safely removed.

It is simple to use in simple cases, but also supports complex pipelines that involve branching, joining, flow control, feedback, back pressure, and so on. Optionally, Streamz can also work with both Pandas and cuDF dataframes, to provide sensible streaming operations on continuous tabular data.

The RT-Preempt (http://rt.wiki.kernel.org) project provides patches to make Linux kernel capable of fulfilling hard realtime requirements. The aim is to eliminate all preemptivity and reactivity problems in the kernel over the time by adding deterministic preemption points. The -rt patches are constantly being worked on for mainline by the community.

Pengutronix's Realtime Linux for Debian project provides builds of the stock Linux kernel with the RT-Preempt patch (but without Debian patches).
