Open Specy
Open Specy is a free, open-source platform that allows users to analyze, share, process, and identify microplastics spectroscopy data. It was created as a response to the lack of open-source spectral analysis software. Since its creation in 2021, Open Specy has grown into a global community of users and an ecosystem of functionality with advanced online and desktop functionality.
