Supported Data Formats
Sep 04, 2026
3438
LOGS currently supports more than 150 data formats across a wide range of instrument vendors and analytical techniques (based on LOGS version 3.3.67).
The list of supported formats continues to grow as new formats are added based on customer requirements and user feedback.
If your data format is not currently listed, our onboarding team will work with you to ensure that all relevant data formats can be successfully uploaded to LOGS. Full support for additional formats can be evaluated and implemented as part of the data fomrat implementation process How to add a new dataformat?
