Beaverdam is a Python package that centralizes your data or metadata and shows you a high-level overview of trends. It combines (meta)data files into a single database, then generates a dashboard in your web browser so you can interactively explore. Beaverdam was designed to be pretty simple, and give you the information you need to decide which (possibly less-simple) things to do next.
(Meta)data formats currently supported are JSON and odML, though in principle Beaverdam's MongoDB backend supports any file type that can be converted to JSON.
Currently, Beaverdam runs locally on your machine, and can build or access local or remote databases.
Beaverdam's dashboard shows configurable filters, plots, and a table with details of each (meta)data file.
