Transferring data

Copy results to other programs

Although ANY-maze can perform quite sophisticated analysis of your results, we don’t pretend that it can replace a full stats program such as SPSS, or a specialist graphing application such as GraphPad, so we’ve made it really easy to move test results to other programs.

The Data spreadsheet has been designed specifically to facilitate data transfer – for example, you can plot repeated measures in separate columns, which simplifies subsequent analysis in SPSS.

The entire spreadsheet, or just a part of it, can be copied and then pasted directly into most programs. Alternatively you can save the spreadsheet to a file in a variety of common formats.

Export tracking data

In some experiments you might want to analyse the actual tracking data recorded by ANY-maze during each test, perhaps using MATLAB scripts.

In this case, you can use ANY-maze’s powerful export features, which allow you to either export the tracking data for each test as a CSV file, or export the entire experiment into a single XML file. In the case of XML export, you can choose exactly what data you wish to include – as shown in the image on the right.
