-Pkg-Description: Visualization for Algorithm Development
- VisAD is a Java component library for interactive and collaborative
- visualization and analysis of numerical data. The name VisAD is an acronym for
- "Visualization for Algorithm Development". The system combines:
- .
- The use of pure Java for platform independence and to support data sharing and
- real-time collaboration among geographically distributed users. Support for
- distributed computing is integrated at the lowest levels of the system using
- Java RMI distributed objects.
- .
- A general mathematical data model that can be adapted to virtually any
- numerical data, that supports data sharing among different users, different
- data sources and different scientific disciplines, and that provides
- transparent access to data independent of storage format and location (i.e.,
- memory, disk or remote). The data model has been adapted to netCDF, HDF-5,
- FITS, HDF-EOS, McIDAS, Vis5D, GIF, JPEG, TIFF, QuickTime, ASCII and many other
- file formats.
- .
- A general display model that supports interactive 3-D, data fusion, multiple
- data views, direct manipulation, collaboration, and virtual reality. The
- display model has been adapted to Java3D and Java2D and used in an ImmersaDesk
- virtual reality display.
- .
- Data analysis and computation integrated with visualization to support
- computational steering and other complex interaction modes.
- .
- Support for two distinct communities: developers who create domain- specific
- systems based on VisAD, and users of those domain-specific systems. VisAD is
- designed to support a wide variety of user interfaces, ranging from simple data
- browser applets to complex applications that allow groups of scientists to
- collaboratively develop data analysis algorithms.
- .
- Developer extensibility in as many ways as possible.
