 Each ENVI-met simulation creates a huge amount of data which is organized in different files and folders.  Each ENVI-met simulation creates a huge amount of data which is organized in different files and folders. 
 In general, there are two different types of output files regardless their content: In general, there are two different types of output files regardless their content:
-  * **Simple Text Files**: Files which contain data in pure ASCII text format. Usually, the content of the file are described in the first row of the file. These file can be read and visiualized with any software that can read text files (which should be about every piece of software that can visiualize data).+  * **Simple Text Files**: Files which contain data in pure ASCII text format. Usually, the content of the file are described in the first row of the file. These file can be read and visiualized with any software that can read text files.  From Version 5 on, ENVI-met provides different options to analyse data using Python e.g. the DataStudio inside LEONARDO. With respect to Python, the format of the text output files have been changed in V5 to allow a seamless use with Python and Pandas.
   * **Binary Files (EDX/EDT)**: The main ENVI-met output files are stored in a binary format and require special software to be read. The [[leonardo:start|LEONARDO]] software included in the ENVI-met system offers a comfortable and visual access to all data and give various options for 2D and 3D visualisation. In addition, with the help of the reference for the [[filereference:edx_edi|EDX/EDT file format]], own reader routines can easily be developed.  Moreover, ENVI-met provides the option to convert EDX/EDT data to the [[wp>NetCDF|NetCDF format]]  via the **NetCDF application** found in the Headquarter.    * **Binary Files (EDX/EDT)**: The main ENVI-met output files are stored in a binary format and require special software to be read.
