UN-SCAN-IT is a graph digitizer software designed to convert graph images into their underlying (x, y) data values automatically. It addresses the challenge of extracting quantitative data from printed or scanned graphs, strip charts, instrumental outputs, and other image-based sources, providing a digital solution for tasks that previously required manual measurement or estimation. The software is intended for users who need to recover data from images, such as comparing old and new data, analyzing published graphs, or digitizing outputs from various instruments.
The tool supports a wide range of image formats, including JPG, TIFF, GIF, BMP, and PNG, and works with images from scanners, digital cameras, and other sources. Key features include peak area integration, data smoothing, derivative calculation, graph rescaling, and the ability to export digitized data in (x, y) ASCII text, JCAMP, and clipboard formats for use in spreadsheets and other programs. UN-SCAN-IT offers various digitizing modes such as automatic line following, semi-automatic mode for multiple or intersecting curves, raster scan for scatter plots, manual point-and-click digitizing, and specialized modes for bar graphs, contour lines, and symbol recognition. It accommodates linear, semi-log, and logarithmic scales, and can handle up to 100,000 data points per file.
Additional capabilities include adjustable X data spacing, multi-line and cyclic digitizing, live on-screen graphics, data editing with interactive cursors, grid line filters, colored and grayscale data recognition, and correction for tilted graphs or variable line thickness. The software also provides customizable screen colors, a graphical data eraser, toolbar shortcuts, tooltips, and context-sensitive help. Recent enhancements feature a zoomable digitizing screen, scalable image control, integrated digitizing and graphing spreadsheets, vertical data shifting, support for larger image files, and a "Turbo Mode" for faster processing.
