In the high data rate initiative (HDRI) german accelerator and neutron facilities of the Helmholtz Association agreed to use NeXus as a common data format. The synchrotron radiation source ANKA decided in 2012 to introduce NeXus as common data format for all beam lines. Nevertheless it is a challenging work to integrate a new data format in existing data processing work flows. Scientists rely on existing data evaluation kits which require specific data formats. To solve this obstacle, for linux a filesystem in userspace (FUSE) was developed, allowing to mount NeXus-Files as a filesystem. Easy in XML configurable filter rules allow a very flexible view to the data. Tomography data frames can be directly accessed as TIFF files by any standard picture viewer or scan data can be presented as a virtual ASCII file compatible to spec.
