Veusz is a scientific plotting and graphing application with a GUI for creating publication-ready 2D and 3D plots, built from composable plotting widgets. It also works as a Python module, command-line tool, and via scripting/DBUS/SAMP interfaces, exporting to PDF, SVG, PNG, EPS, and EMF.
Use cases
- create publication-ready figures for a scientific paper
- plot x-y data with error bars from CSV files
- make contour and image plots from HDF5 data
- generate 3D surface plots of a dataset
- script plot generation from Python
- fit a function to measured data
- export graphs as vector PDF or SVG
When to choose
- you need publication-quality vector output for academic papers
- you want a GUI for plotting rather than writing code
- you need to import scientific formats like FITS or HDF5
- you want to automate figure generation via Python scripting
When to avoid
- you need interactive dashboards or web-based visualization
- you want quick exploratory plotting in a notebook (matplotlib may fit better)
- you need statistical chart types beyond scientific plotting
- you require a permissive license (Veusz is GPL-2.0)
