IBEX

IBEX (IMAS variaBles EXplorer) is a general purpose graphical tool for exploring the content of IMAS structured data. It can display quantities as 1D or 2D plots (possibly slicing through higher dimensionality datasets). It is expected to replace IMASViz (which is not maintained anymore) and go beyond.

Note

This project is under active development, important changes may occur including in the backend endpoint API.
