SciDAVis is an interactive application aimed at
data analysis and publication-quality plotting. It
combines a shallow learning curve and an
intuitive, easy-to-use graphical user interface
with powerful features such as scriptability and
extensibility. It is similar in its field of
application to proprietary Windows applications
like Origin and SigmaPlot, as well as free
applications like QtiPlot, Labplot, and Gnuplot.
What sets SciDAVis apart from the above is its
emphasis on providing a friendly and open
environment (in the software as well as the
project) for new and experienced users alike, and
particularly in providing good documentation on
all levels.
