Overview

Visualization experts from the laboratory will introduce Avizo/Amira - a general-purpose commercial software application for scientific data visualization and analysis. Avizo/Amira users can quickly build visualizations to analyze their data using qualitative and quantitative techniques. The data exploration can be done interactively in 3D on a Desktop. Attendees will participate in hands-on sessions working with Avizo/Amira to create 3D visualizations of scientific datasets.

Who Should Attend?

The target audience for this workshop are KAUST users who are looking for a new scientific visualization solution and have little or no experience with Avizo/Amira or scientific visualization in general.
