Hello all<br><br>Further to my earlier post, I have managed to work out
how to get point data into Paraview in spherical coordinates using the
following:<br><br>X=Radius * cos (longitude) * cos (latitude)<br>Y=Radius * sin (longitude) * cos (latitude)<br>Z=Radius * sin (latitude)<br><br>All angles in Radians. The radius is the earth distance, for which I computed 3 depths (50, 100, 150 km) - in radius this<br>works out as 6328 km, 6278 km and 6228 km (with fixed radius at d=0 as 6378 km).<br><br>Calculated
a CSV file for input to Paraview and then did table to points which
works fine, table to structured grid is more awkward.<br><br>Is there a way to take a point dataset (vtk) and convert it to a structured grid so that one can actually slice the data?<br><br>I have done a test VTK file and the input CSV, but are too large to post to the list,.<br><br>The modelling idea is to generate a mantle "shell" that can be sliced properly to visualise mantle velocity anomalies. The full data file<br>consists of 56 layers in 50km intervals and is quite large as a CSV file 350Mb+ The table data is all correct but it vauses Paraview to crash out of the import.<br><br>One option to get around the import issue is to load up the layers separately and I guess just use the append dataset option.<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Leste </body>
