Abstract:		The described computer program is designed for the analysis of archival data and the visualization of various parameters of the nuclear power RBMK unit. The reactor core includes 1884 channels. Each channel has varying properties and measured parameters. The program allows presenting the archive data about the condition of the unit as cartograms, tracking the history of parameters changes as graphs and writing the required data in a text file. The program also provides opportunities to compare various parameters and to represent the result of the comparison as cartograms or text data allowing identifying the areas for research. For preliminary calculations with archival data, there is a special script editor called Boo. The data to display is taken from the "SKALA-MICRO" system remote storage, text files, burst can detection system database. The input data is stored in the same format in a PostgreSQL database, which supports the remote connection to the archive.
