MARS

Deliverables

Tables (Utkarsh)

  • Make vtkTables a supported pipeline object type.
    Done.
    • It should have its own icon in the pipeline browser.
      Done.
    • The default view should probably be spreadsheet.
      Done.
  • Plotting filters (plot over line, plot over time, histogram) should output tables.
    Histogram outputs tables. Plot over time should be doing multiblock of tables. Need to check the rest of the data analysis plotting filters.
  • csv readers/writers should work principally (perhaps exclusively) with tables.
    Readers read in data into tables. Writers can write out tables.
    Can now write out any data set as a csv file.
  • Simple conversion from tables to other data (such as collection of points).
    Made filters to convert table to poly data points and to structured grids.

Done (modulo any bugs or issues).

ParaView/Titan Chart Merger (Pat/Utkarsh)

Has bar chart working for paraview. Line charts should be working soon.

Simplified Scripting (Berk/Utkarsh)

Ongoing.

Temporal Cleanup (Berk)

  • Show temporal bounds of all datasets in statistics view (or elsewhere)
  • Show continuous data set temporal bounds in info page
  • Plot/Probe over time, results should very in Sequence, Snap, and Real Time modes

Not started yet. John Biddiscombe has been looking at it.

Plots Along Curves (Berk)

Not sure (Berk not here).

VisIt AVT Integration (Burlen)

Can read structured data, have time awareness. Working on unstructured and AMR.

Parallel support is not in.

Statistics (Phillipe)

Phillipe has been polishing up the report. Descriptive, correlative, and bi-correlative are all working in parallel. In order to see the output in ParaView, ParaView needs to be able to show a multiblock of tables.

Utkarsh says that the spreadsheet view can already handle that.

Particle Support (Zhanping/John Biddiscombe)

  • Provide a particle representation that renders points more intelligently
    • Spheres with size vs. squares of pixel width
    • Optional sizing based on a scalar
    • Appropriate alpha blending (at least when particles are small)
    • Splatting?
  • Filters for meshless data? (Need to get customer requirements.)
    • Sampling point cloud?
    • Surface extraction?

Not started yet.
