psyplot [@psyplot] is an cross-platform open source python project that mainly combines the plotting utilities of matplotlib [@Hunter2007] and the data management of the xarray [@hoyer2017xarray] package and integrates them into a software that can be used via command-line and via a GUI.
The main purpose is to have a framework that allows a fast, attractive, flexible, easily applicable, easily reproducible and especially an interactive visualization of data.
The ultimate goal is to help scientists in their daily work by providing a flexible visualization tool that can be enhanced by their own visualization scripts.
The framework is extended by multiple plugins: psy-simple [@psy-simple] for simple visualization tasks, psy-maps [@psy-maps] for georeferenced data visualization and psy-reg [@psy-reg] for the visualization of fits. It is furthermore extended by the optional graphical user interface psyplot-gui [@psyplot-gui].
