Welcome to HoloSpy’s documentation!#
HoloSpy is a Python package extending the functionality for multi-dimensional data analysis provided by the HyperSpy library. It is aimed at helping with the analysis of (off-axis) electron holography data. Originally developed as part of HyperSpy, these and other domain specific features have been split out into dedicated packages with the HyperSpy 2.0 release.
