Jdaviz - Astronomical Data Visualization

jdaviz provides a set of interactive data visualization and data analysis tools for astronomical data. These tools are designed to work within Jupyter lab (notebook) either on your own machine or on a dedicated cloud platform, as a standalone desktop application, or embedded within a website -- all with nearly identical user interfaces. jdaviz allows for any mix of interactive point-and-click operations and advanced scripting via a Python API for bulk and reproducible analysis.

Introducing the new generalized Jdaviz

Version 5.0 of Jdaviz introduces a new generalized Jdaviz capable of advanced mixed workflows. No longer do you need to choose between the different configurations - just load the data you want to analyze into jdaviz and the interface and tools will adjust accordingly.

View Deprecated Configuration-Specific Documentation
Run Jdaviz as a native desktop application, without the need to run jupyter or use any python. Note that with this installation, you will not have access to running API commands.
Preview data directly from the MAST archive in Jdaviz, without having to install Jdaviz or download any data. If you want to move the analysis to your local machine or benefit from API access, install Jdaviz and download a notebook from MAST to get started with the same data on your own machine.
