Local Processing: Desktop Tool

A new stand-alone/GUI application was built based on the Python script provided by TESAF department.

The main difference between a stand-alone application and a Python script is that a computer needs a custom environment setting, custom software installation and custom libraries in order to run a Python script while a stand-alone application could be run without any additional configuration.

On the other hand, the main difference between a plain Python script and graphical user interface application is that a GUI app enables a person to communicate with a computer through the use of symbols, visual metaphors, and pointing devices while a plain script requires some technical knowledge in order to run an application.

A complete documentation was included with transfer of knowledge purposes. It includes step by step instructions about how a stand-alone/ GUI app could be developed from a plain Python script.
