Powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) under laser-driven dynamic compression is a powerful tool to investigate material response to extreme pressure, temperature and strain rates. Robust PXRD platforms have been developed at kJ and MJ laser facilities worldwide including the Powder X-Ray Diffraction Image Plate (PXRDIP) at the Omega Laser Facility at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) and the TARget Diffraction In Situ (TARDIS) at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). Here we present further developments of data analysis methods focused towards improving the fidelity of the PXRD intensity determination for these platforms. We illustrate these methods by discussing how they can be implemented in a data analysis package and applied to shock compression data on diamond near 1 TPa. We discuss using the XRD signal from the collimating pinhole or a layer of un-compressed material in the sample package as \textit{ in-situ} references for XRD intensity. We detail how to compare data collected with different x-ray sources and how to account for thermal damping of XRD signal when comparing XRD from a shock-compressed, hot material with the reference material at ambient.
