Welcome to the DataLab wiki
DataLab is an open-source scientific platform for 1D signal and 2D image processing and visualization, designed to support advanced analysis workflows in research and industry.
Built on top of proven Python libraries (NumPy, SciPy, scikit-image, OpenCV) and a Qt-based interface (PlotPyStack), DataLab provides a powerful yet extensible environment for interactive and automated data processing.

As part of the NGI0 Commons Fund, DataLab is undergoing a major architectural redesign to extract its core computation engine into a standalone processing library.
This work is funded by the NLnet Foundation and aims to:
- Improve modularity and maintainability of the codebase,
- Enable usage of DataLab's computational features without the GUI,
- Prepare the ground for future extensions (e.g. web frontend).
