Abstract: The GENFIT toolkit, initially developed at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen, has been extended and modified to be more general and user-friendly. The new GENFIT, called GENFIT2, provides track representation, track-fitting algorithms and graphic visualization of tracks and detectors, and it can be used for any experiment that determines parameters of charged particle trajectories from spacial coordinate measurements. Based on general Kalman filter routines, it can perform extrapolations of track parameters and covariance matrices. It also provides interfaces to Millepede II for alignment purposes, and RAVE for the vertex finder. Results of an implementation of GENFIT2 in basf2 and PandaRoot software frameworks are presented here.
