VirES for Swarm

The VirES service[1, 2] has been developed to make Swarm products accessible to programmers and non-programmers alike. It combines infrastructure, in the form of Django-based server and JupyterHub, and tooling such as the graphical web client and Python client. Together these enable many different modes of interaction, and support scientist-led development of downstream Python packages, notebooks[3], and mini-applications. The web client provides both 3D visualisation and customisable 2D plotting, allowing data exploration without any programming required. On the other hand, ready-to-run notebooks provide the more intrepid explorer the opportunity to generate more bespoke analysis and visualisation and lower the barrier to entry to programming.
