Summary

Visualization includes all aspects related to the visual preparation of usually large data sets from technical or scientific experiments and simulation. For a better understanding and a meaningful representation of complex phenomena, methods from interactive computer graphics are applied. This lecture introduces basic algorithms and data structures and gives an overview of available software tools and common data formats. The lecture covers the following topics:

  • scenarios for visualization
  • meshes and data representation
  • methods for 2D scalar and vector fields
  • methods for 3D scalar and vector fields
  • methods for multivariate data
  • volume rendering with iso-surfaces
  • direct volume rendering
