What dtscalibration can do for you

'dtscalibration' is a Python package to load Distributed Temperature Sensing files, perform a calibration, and plot the result. A detailed description of the calibration procedure can be found at https://doi.org/10.3390/s20082235

Package features

  • Advanced calibration routine
    • Both single- and double-ended setups
    • Confidence intervals of calibrated temperature
    • Time integration of calibration parameters
    • Weighted least-squares calibration
    • Fixing parameters to a previously determined value]
    • (Asymmetric) step loss correction
    • Matching temperature sections
  • Dynamic reference section definition
  • Tools for merging and aligning double-ended setups
  • Data formats of most manufacturers are supported
