MacPhase is a 2D data analysis and visualization application for the Macintosh.  Data sets can be byte, integer, longint, or real and can be as large as memory allows.

MacPhase has an extensive collection of processing tools ranging from simple math operators to fourier transforms.  You can use simple tools to filter in the frequency domain.  There are 3x3 and 5x5 configurable convolution filters and much more.

MacPhase can also display your data using raster, contour, 3D wireframe, 3D surface, 3D rendered surface, vector, 3D contour, 3D line, line, and combination plots.

There is an easy to use color look up table editor.  Use it to put the colors where they best show your data.

MacPhase has a Data Tool palette which allows you to draw in the data layer of your data window.  MacPhase has also has a Draw Tool palette which draws in an drawing layer of your data window.  Use the draw tools to annotate your data with text, simple shapes, placed pictures, color look up table legends, and even sound objects.

Just about every function or operation can be called using a pascal-like macro language.  Macros are a great way to extend some of the already great features in MacPhase.

You can also write external code modules, Add-ons, for MacPhase.  These Add-ons can be an excellent way to extend MacPhase's capabilities.  Add-ons will be made available to support the QuickCapture and SCION frame grabbers, GPIB interface, serial ports, QuickTime, video digitization (AV-vdig), Photoshop plug-ins, color channels, image restoration, and more.  Add-ons are callable from the macro language.  Add-ons can be used to add new file formats as well.

MacPhase has a large number of supported formats some of which are PICT, TIFF, MatLab, HDF, FITS, binary, text, EPS, Mathematica, Photoshop, polygon files, sound, color tables, and others.

MacPhase supports AppleEvents through the DoScript event and several custom events.  Use the DoScript event to send macro commands to MacPhase.  Use the custom events to pass data between applications.
