Characterisation Virtual Laboratory

The Characterisation Virtual Laboratory (CVL) is a managed eResearch desktop available to all Australian researchers working in imaging and characterisation sciences.

Using their AAF login, researchers can access the virtual laboratory using their choice of desktop client or web-based interface.

CVL allows researchers to easily access high-performance computing (HPC) setups over the internet using their own computers for processing large volumes of imaging data on remote systems.

CVL comes preinstalled with several imaging tools and related software already available on the HPC platforms. The CVL team is also ready to install new packages in response to the changing needs of the characterisation community.

RCC operates a CVL node on Wiener that is available to researchers from all QCIF member institutions (including UQ staff and HDR students) who need a GPU for their work. To apply to use it, please follow the Wiener access procedure. When opening an RCC support request ticket, please mention that you wish to use the CVL.

CVL, as well as other tools to manage imaging data, can be found on the ImagingTools platform under "Tools" (link below).
