NIST have produced a freely available package called AMDIS (automated mass spectrometry deconvolution and identification system) for the analysis of GC/MS data sets. Developed to assist in the task of verifying the international Chemical Weapons Convention (http //www.opcw.org/) financially supported by the US Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA, US Department of Defense) the AMDIS program is also distributed with the NIST 02 Mass Spectral Library (see above).
