Abstract
In response to the growing need of the space life sciences community for a publicly available single access point for radiation physics data relevant to human space exploration, an open data repository and analysis platform, RadLab, has been developed. RadLab consists of a database and a user-friendly data retrieval, visualization, and analysis toolkit, including a graphical user interface (GUI) and an application programming interface (API). RadLab complements the space biology data in the NASA Open Science Data Repository (OSDR) and aims to provide open, centralized access to radiation physics data relevant to spaceflight. Analysis tools contained in RadLab will facilitate intercomparison among different detectors and radiation data sets to better understand the radiation environment in spacecraft and planetary habitats, and facilitate the use of space radiation data by space biology investigators and radiation instrument developers.
