I’ve recently discovered ParaView, a tool for visualising data I hadn’t come across before.When it comes to data I guess I’m used to web based stuff. You know the kind of thing, throw something a few triples and watch it generate a Network Graph or the overused D3.js type stuff. Paraview sits in a world I don’t really know well and am having trouble getting my head around it. Still here is a pretty neat example I found on the web
While it might be pretty obvious what the visualisation is doing, I had no how he did it. I asked the author, John Mick who said:
“I obtained the data for the visualization from NASA JPL’s Telnet Server – using a combination of Python and Expect scripts. The visualization was designed and rendered to video in ParaView. All free stuff!”
