HBM tools

Description

In the human biomonitoring (HBM) field, data is inherently sensitive. Hence, why we exposed the python functionality of the PyHBM package through a web-tool that runs locally. The python code is compiled into WebAssembly, allowing it to be run in the user’s computer. This ensures data confidentiality.

Usage

Selecting a codebook

First you will have to select the relevant codebook (later on you will be able to upload your own). codebook is just another word for the configuration.

Selecting a file

With the select file button, you will select the data you want validated, according to the codebook you selected.

Validate

After selecting your file, the data will be validated automatically. Errors that have been found will be written to the screen, as seen below.
