Analysis & Modeling

Analysis refers to software intended to analyze data, whether it be mathematical, instrumental, quantitative, or qualitative. This category includes many research and statistical packages as well as graphing tools for showing data trends and correlations.

Modeling software focuses on the digital creation or the digital re-creation of a design. Modeling software allows for digital simulation to explore possibilities, theories, and simulate results. It also allows for easy viewing of the design from perspectives that would otherwise be difficult.

This category includes mapping tools, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) tools, plotting tools, landscape analysts, and geological structure tool. Also included is Software for statistical gathering, analysis, computation, and visualization. Often used in research, polling, or surveying.

PASCO Capstone

Availability: Download
Comparable: Pasco DataStudio

PASCO Capstone is the next leap forward in software for data acquisition, display and analysis and destined to be the new standard in physics and engineering labs.  It takes that mantle from DataStudio which it supersedes.

Not an upgrade on existing software, PASCO Capstone was built from the ground up to be the most powerful and flexible option available.

While it was designed in conjunction with the new 850 Universal Interface, Capstone is completely compatible with all PASCO USB Interfaces – the 850, Xplorer GLX, SPARKlink, SPARK, USB link and even older interfaces such as the Science Workshop 750 or 500.

Pasco Data Studio

December 19, 2013 by clas-web
Categories: Analysis & Modeling
Availability: Labs  |  Discontinued
Comparable: PASCO Capstone

PASCO Data Studio is a powerful, easy-to-use data collection and analysis software that works with ALL PASCO interfaces. It is the premier data acquisition, display and analysis software for high school and university sciences.

*Note:  PASCO Data Studio is being transitioned to PASCO Capstone.  Development on PASCO Data Studio has ceased and it does not support Windows 8.
