-Visualization experts from the laboratory will introduce [[https://visit-dav.github.io/visit-website/|VisIt]]- a highly-scalable, open-source, multi-platform data analysis and visualization application. VisIt users can quickly build visualizations to analyze their data using qualitative and quantitative techniques. The data exploration can be done interactively in 3D. Attendees will participate in a hands-on session working with VisIt to create 3D visualizations of scientific datasets. +===== Overview =====

 +Visualization experts from the laboratory will discuss scripting and supercomputing workflows at KAUST using [[https://www.paraview.org/|ParaView]] and [[https://visit-dav.github.io/visit-website/|VisIt]]. ParaView and VisIt are highly-scalable, open-source, multi-platform data analysis and visualization applications. ParaView and VisIt users can quickly build visualizations to analyze their data using qualitative and quantitative techniques.

-VisIt is an essential tool for scientific visualization, especially for large datasets.  It is professional-quality, user-friendly software that is packed with advanced functionality.  It was developed to analyze extremely large datasets (using distributed memory and parallel computing resources); but, its special super-power is that it grows with the user's data, running great on the laptop, the workstation, the cluster (Ibex), and the supercomputer (Shaheen). Visualization and analytic pipelines created in VisIt at the start of your project will continue to work efficiently even as the amount of data produced continues to grow.+ParaView and VisIt are essential tools for scientific visualization, especially for large datasets.  They are professional-quality, user-friendly software that are packed with advanced functionality.  They were developed to analyze extremely large datasets (using distributed memory and parallel computing resources); but, their special super-power is that they grow with the user's data, running great on the laptop, the workstation, the cluster (Ibex), and the supercomputer (Shaheen).
