Course Information:
ParaView is a popular open source application for the visualization of
2D and 3D scientific data. It is designed to run on a desk top (or
parallel cluster for large data) and comes packaged with a wide variety
of scientific software. Its graphical user interface (GUI) makes it
quick to test visualization techniques on data. Once suitable techniques
are selected you can build your own bespoke ParaView application, called
a state, or use the knowledge gained to program your own application in
another system/language.

This is a general hands-on course that introduces some of the basic
visualization techniques using research data produced at the University
of Leeds. It covers:
• an overview of the GUI
• how to load, save and reset a state
• how to alter data using the calculator
• using contours (isolines and isosurfaces)
• clipping regions of interest
• using multiple views to show related views of a single data
set
• using colour and setting your colour map
• placing titles in the view and saving images
• creating an animation
If there is time at the end of the day you can load your own data into
ParaView.


PREREQUISITES:
This course is aimed at researchers who have some 2D or 3D data that
they are currently trying to visualize. The level is for beginners to
intermediates.
