Reflectance Database
The Reflectance Database is a free on-line reference tool for users of reflectance spectroscopic technologies for mineral characterisation. The database contains visible-near infrared, shortwave infrared, mid infrared and thermal infrared reflectance spectra collected from a growing number of natural minerals..

SXES Database
The Soft X-Ray Emission Spectroscopy (SXES) Database is a free on-line reference tool for researchers in the fields of x-ray analysis and spectroscopy. The database contains spectra from synthetic compounds, metals and minerals. X-ray emission line markers show the peak origin and order of x-ray reflection.
