Data model#

Famewoks connects BLISS to Larch. It reads raw data collected at the beamline in HDF5 format and permits the users to visualize, filter, merge, and save the data into an Athena project file for further analysis using Larch/Larix GUI.

Data Model

Data model.#

The data model, that is how the data from disk are mapped in memory, is shown in fig_datamodel. All data structures are represented by Python standard dataclasses, as they provide a clear and concise way to define the data structures and permits validation.

The data are organized in a tree-like structure (famewoks.datamodel):

  • Experimental session (ExpSession)

    • -> sample (ExpSample)

      • -> dataset (ExpDataset)

        • -> scan (XasScanGroup)

The base data container is a Larch Group.
