I am the creator of this app. I made this as a fun side project during grad school, but kept working on it as my friends or I needed more features. Over time it has become fairly popular and now I am thinking of making a traditional desktop software as well.

The main reason I built this was that existing tools (including G3Data) were either tedious, did not have any sub-pixel level accuracy or were limited to simple XY plots only. I took a very simple web based approach as it was easier for me and I could get this to work on virtually any computer in the lab that had a browser and internet.
