The data generated by devices such as the CV potentiostats and processed as a BagIt container (Figure ) undergoes several changes during the further research data life cycle. These changes have to be amended -similar to the completion of metadata -to the available dataset. While working with the data, the original BagIt container (Figure , part 1, including the JCAMP-DX as obtained from ChemConverter) is preserved. One or multiple working versions of the datadepending on the number of CV cycles/files -available as *.bagit.jdx are created by ChemSpectra and changes made to the data through the automation routine, e.g. through automated peak picking, are saved automatically to one or multiple additional file(s) labeled *.bagit.peak.jdx (Figure , part 2). Files that are generated based on manual actions, such as manual peak picking with the UI, are saved as *.bagit.edit.jdx (Figure , part 3). Additionally, files for the representation of (Figure , part 4). As CV data in ChemSpectra are handled in a way that allows the generation and tracking of one data file per curve that is measured, the data processing and saving routines apply to all curves/files individually, allowing the generation of a fine granular summary and reuse of the data.
