Analyze Peaks

Review scientific data files, label or compare peaks, and export a cleaner final curve.

NotyLibrary -> NotyCheck -> NotyPlot

Intermediate 4-7 min
Best for I want to identify or label peaks in a scientific dataset before I export the plot.
Input XRD, FTIR, Raman, UV-Vis, TGA, DSC, CSV, TXT
Output Checked peak analysis plot
Estimated time 4-7 min

Before you start

Make sure your image has at least one reliable scale reference. This can be an existing scale bar, a saved calibration, or a known pixel-to-unit ratio. If the image is already calibrated, you can skip calibration setup and continue to Edit or Scale & Export.

  • Microscopy image is ready
  • Calibration reference is available
  • Output format is selected
  • Crop or image cleanup is only used when needed

This short video shows the full path: import the image, select or create calibration, crop or improve the image, add the scale bar, and export the final result.

Workflow Steps

1
NotyLibrary

Collect the raw data file in NotyLibrary

Keep the source spectrum or curve with its later plot outputs.

2
NotyCheck

Review the incoming file quickly

Confirm the file imported correctly before you label peaks or export anything.

3
NotyPlot

Plot the spectrum and inspect peaks

Generate the graph and focus attention on the peak regions that matter.

4
NotyPlot

Label or compare peaks

Add the annotations or comparisons needed for interpretation.

5
NotyCheck

Review the final export

Check readability and export a cleaner final figure or plot.

Common mistakes this workflow helps prevent

Unclear peak labels

Plots exported before final review

Lost connection between source data and final graph

Expected output

Before

Raw microscopy image with old scale context, unnecessary borders, or no final scale bar.

After

Clean microscopy image with a calibrated, readable scale bar placed in a safe corner.

Export-ready for

Reports, lab notes, scientific slides, manuscripts, documentation, and tutorials.

Frequently asked questions

Does this workflow only work for one data type?

No. It can support several common scientific data types as long as the plot is readable and the input is supported.

Why review the final curve after labeling peaks?

A final check helps you catch crowded annotations, weak contrast, or export problems before sharing the figure.

Ready to calibrate and export your image?

Start with your microscopy image, select calibration, edit only if needed, then add a clean scale bar and export.
