VISPA: New Applications for Intuitive Data Visualisation and Analysis Creation — Martin Erdmann, Benjamin Fischer, Robert Fischer, Christian Glaser, Fabian Heidemann, Gero Müller, •Thorben Quast, Marcel Rieger, Martin Urban, Daniel van Asseldonk, Ralf Florian von Cube, and Christoph Welling — Physics Institute IIIa, RWTH Aachen University, Germany

The Visual Physics Analysis software is a framework developed at RWTH Aachen providing intuitive access and usage of experiment-specific resources via common web browsers. Through its extension mechanism, VISPA allows for interfacing a wide range of applications to meet the demands for diverse use cases. After a quick review of the internal architecture and basic functionalities, most recent updates to the system are highlighted and various newly released extensions are presented: Our data browsers facilitate the inspection of information in Pierre Auger Observatory and HEP data samples. The JSROOT project has been embedded and enables the visualisation of ROOT files. Modular analysis chains based on our HEP software library (PXL) can be interactively created and modified using the Analysis Designer. VISPA is tested both through its integration in undergraduate and elementary particle physics courses at RWTH and through its use in analysis work for CMS and Auger. Finally, instructions on how to access our cluster or to set up an own server are given.
