SoFi workshop 2026

We are happy to invite you to an in-person SoFi workshop in Baden, Switzerland, taking place 13–15 April 2026.

The workshop introduces the theoretical foundations of PMF and shows how these ideas can be applied in SoFi. The focus is on learning by doing: participants are encouraged to bring their own datasets (or work with provided examples) and apply PMF step by step to questions that are directly relevant to their work.

The format is interactive and beginner-friendly, with plenty of room for questions, discussion, and guided hands-on sessions.

New Publication: Real-Time Source Apportionment with SoFi RT using the AXA setup

We’re proud to share the newest publication introducing SoFi RT, which applies the novel AXA approach for total PM source apportionment: “Implementation of real-time source apportionment approaches using the ACSM–Xact–Aethalometer (AXA) setup with SoFi RT: the Athens case study”.

This study marks the first-ever application of the AXA setup integrated with SoFi RT for real-time source apportionment. By integrating multiple instruments into one coherent analysis pipeline, SoFi RT opens new possibilities for faster, more comprehensive source apportionment — supporting better science, decision-making, and pollution mitigation. Importantly, the results compare well with the traditional rolling PMF approach, demonstrating that real-time analysis can deliver both speed and reliability without compromising scientific robustness.

Datalystica at AAAR 2024

We are excited to announce that Datalystica will be participating in the AAAR 2024, October 21-25 in Albuquerque, NM.

We are thrilled that Datalystica will be represented at an American conference for the first time at AAAR 2024! We are eager to engage with fellow source apportionment enthusiasts and deeply appreciate the opportunity to connect with both new and familiar faces who share our passion for this vital field. At Datalystica, we highly value the power of collaboration, believing that the most innovative ideas come from diverse perspectives. We look forward to listening to different insights that can broaden our understanding and enhance our software, helping us to better serve your needs.

We are more than happy to discuss the latest advances in source apportionment and how we implemented those in our software solutions (SoFi Pro, SoFi RT). But we are equally happy to also simply exchanging ideas. Also, if you are not sure if source apportionment could be interesting for project, don’t hesitate to stop by. Let’s discover how you too can benefit from SoFi. Our team will be available throughout the event, you are very much welcomed to visit our booth #406.

For more information about AAAR 2024, including how to attend, visit their website. To schedule a meeting with our team during the event, please contact us at support@datalystica.com.

We look forward to fostering meaningful connections and exchanging innovative ideas at AAAR 2024!
