| # Overview | ||||
| ** SciQLOP ** (**SCI**entific **Q**t application for **L**earning from **O**bservations of **P**lasmas) aims to be an ergonomic | ||||
| and powerful tool enabling visualization and analysis of in-situ space plasma data. This goal rises some | ||||
| challenges either technical and in the conception and the design. | ||||
| The time resolution allowed by nowadays measurements imply the ability to plot millions of points just for | ||||
| one sensor with no compromise on interactivity. Plots may stay responsive even with millions of points. | ||||
| Being able to scroll, zoom, move and export the plots with the mouse are the minimal interactions expected by the user. | ||||
| SciQLOP may also abstract the manipulation of physic data while providing contextual features such as | ||||
| coordinate transform, physical quantity extraction from data. | ||||
| That said increasing graphical features usually lead to slower software and more complex GUI. Keeping | ||||
| SciQLOP lightweight and intuitive is one of the priorities to make it usable and competitive. | ||||
