The large variety of systems for the measurements of insulation, conductivity, RRR, quench performance, etc. installed at CERN’s superconducting magnet test facility generates a diversity of data formats. This mixture causes problems when the measurements need to be correlated. Each measurement application has a dedicated data analysis tool used to validate its results, but there are no generic bridge between the applications that facilitates cross analysis of mixed data and data types. Since the LHC start-up, the superconducting magnet test facility hosts new R&D measurements on a multitude of superconducting components. These results are analysed by international collaborators, which triggered a greater need to access the raw data from many typical engineering and analysis tools, such as MATLAB®, Mathcad®, DIAdem™, Excel™… This paper describes the technical solutions developed for the data formats unification and reviews the present status.
