MountainsSPIP® 8 is the next generation of SPM image analysis software, based on the industry-standard Mountains® platform and including all the best SPIP™ interactivity and analytical tools. It replaces both MountainsMap® SPM and SPIP™. Its multitude of tools help you get meaningful results out of your AFM & SPM image analysis, including:

  • interactive particle analysis for detecting and quantifying features of any shape and size on any surface
  • force spectroscopy for viewing, processing and analyzing force curves and force volume images
  • correlative analysis for combining SPM images with data from other instruments
  • multi-channel file management & processing
  • and much more.

“I have really enjoyed working with MountainSPIP® and taking advantage of its powerful features.  While it does take some time to learn, this software package builds on the success of SPIP™ Image Metrology to deliver everything we are used to and more. Some of my favorite new capabilities including the ability to save a workflow, improved image visualization and versatile and easy-to-use particle sizing. Well worth the time investment to master this powerful and useful software!” Dalia Yablon, founder of SurfaceChar LLC
