Visualisation of MCC/IMS-data

Ion mobility spectrometers (IMS) are used widely to detect explosives, illegal drugs and chemical warfare agents. More than 70.000 units are under operation world-wide. One of the insufficiencies for broad use of different types of ion mobility spectrometers for civilian applications in the scientific or commercial world is the self- or company-made data format, thus complicating any further step towards a consistent evaluation. The problem starts with rather simple visualisation software for rather complex data structures. We describe a Java based software platform with respect to visualisation of IMS data, especially data of IMS coupled to Multi-capillary columns (MCC).
