Credits

MIE — Multispectral Imaging Explorer was conceived and designed by Paolo Tomassini (UCLouvain, F.R.S.–FNRS) for the visual comparison of multispectral and documentary imaging datasets in archaeology and heritage science. The application was developed through iterative human–AI co-design and programming assistance using OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

MIE processes imported images and datasets locally in the user's browser; this version does not upload them to a server.
