\subsection{Loading the data}
\label{sec:dataload}
Currently, FRETBursts supports loading data from a few file formats: SM files
(a binary format saved by a common LabVIEW program used in smFRET setups),
SPC (a binary format used by TCSPC Becker \& Hickl cards) and
\href{http://photon-hdf5.readthedocs.org/}{Photon-HDF5} an open binary
format single-molecule data based on HDF5. Support for additional file
formats,
such as the PicoQuant file formats, formats
can be added depending on user requests.
We encourage adopting
\href{http://photon-hdf5.readthedocs.org/}{Photon-HDF5}
as \href{http://photon-hdf5.readthedocs.org/}{Photon-HDF5},
a format specifically designed for freely-diffusing smFRET and other timestamp-based data.
Photon-HDF5 is a
fast self-documented and
space efficient format
that
assure allows saving both the raw data and the measurement-specific meta-data
(setup and sample information, authors, provenance etc...).
Photon-HDF5 assures long-term accessibility
to of the data and
aims to ease data sharing
between among different
programs. software and research groups.
All the FRETBursts exemplary data files are saved in Photon-HDF5 and can be opened with
standard viewers such as \href{http://www.hdfgroup.org/products/java/hdfview/}{HDFView}.
A additional Additional data files can be found here[multi-spot paper data files].
The \href{http://fretbursts.readthedocs.org/en/latest/loader.html}{\texttt{loader} module}
contains functions to load the different file formats.
