ABOUT
SIMVIS:
Nowadays more and more data is acquired in many fields but often means
to support a useful interpretation are laging behind. New know-how and
technology is needed to extract the useful information from large and complex
data sets.
An exciting new solution to this challenge is provided by the
SimVis technology:
SimVis is an interactive visual analysis technology
- for large, multi-variate, and time-dependent 3D simulation data on unstructured grids
- which has been developed at the VRVis Research Center
in Vienna, Austria, since 2001
- and has received international recognition at top scientific conferences
SimVis stands for Simulation Visualization, which also describes
the main application field for this new technology up to now.
During the progress of research and development the application extended
to other areas, such as
- financial data sets
- customer relation ship data
- meteorological data (measured or simulated)
- logistical data
and many more (see also information on project possibilities).
A prototype implementation of SimVis has been developed and successfully tested
in various applications.
Additionally a demo-installation is running at AVL List GmbH,
one of VRVis' industrial partners.
The SimVis approach to visual exploration and analysis of flow simulation data is based on
- interactive feature specification through interactive brushing in data views
of various kind (scatterplots, histograms, and others),
- a smooth approach to feature specification (similar to fuzzy classifications),
- an intelligent way of extending and combining brushes to access
complex data inter-relations,
- focus-plus-context 3D visualization for spatial orientation,
- providing a proper access to the special data dimension of time
With SimVis it is possible to instantly access all the data dimensions, including
3D space, time, and about a dozen of data attributes concurrently and in an integrated manner.
