The working group was formed in 1994 from the "chemometrics" and "Laboratory Data Processing" groups. According to the focus of these two groups, the working group of the GDCh Division of Analytical Chemistry group intends to combine the acquisition of data in the laboratory with their statistical evaluation, plausibility control and corresponding quality assurance as good analytical practice. For this reason, analysts in particular should feel addressed who use computers to gain data in the laboratory in stationary analysis and dynamic processes and also process them with computers. For this reason, the working group is interested in laboratory information and management systems, computer-controlled spectrometers and general analysis devices as well as the various model-free and model-based multivariate methods of data analysis.
The working group therefore sees it as its task to be present at various Conferences or to organize them in a leading role. The main conferences are COMPANA and the discussion conference on the use of computers in spectroscopy in Gemen. In addition, the working group participates in the analytica conference with great success. Last but not least, aspects of the working group are regularly reflected in lectures at ANAKON.
The GDCh, the Euro- chemometrics CS-Verbund and the Knowledge Transfer of the University of Tübingen (WIT), in the Haus der Technik in Essen and at other organizers (especially Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Bergakademie TU Freiberg) will answer these questions - and advanced training courses or courses are offered.
