Open and standardized data formats have numerous advantages, including streamlining collaboration, improving software interoperability, and lowering access barriers. However, most data in high energy density physics (HEDP) are currently stored in idiosyncratic instrument or laboratory-specific formats. Analysis software is likewise often written for use by a single author (often duplicating effort) and is rarely openly available or well documented. We will present efforts to develop open-source, user friendly analysis software for HEDP as part of the PlasmaPy project, as well as an effort to develop a standardized data format for proton radiography data (“Pradformat”).
