Geoscientific visualization tools for VTK and ParaView
Project description
PVGeo
The PVGeo Python package contains VTK powered tools for data visualization in geophysics which are wrapped for direct use within the application ParaView by Kitware. These tools are tailored to data visualization in the geosciences with a heavy focus on structured data sets like 2D or 3D time-varying grids.

Getting Started
To begin using the PVGeo Python package, create a new Python virtual environment and install PVGeo through pip.
# Use Python 2.7
$ conda create -n PVGeoEnv27 python=2.7
$ conda activate PVGeoEnv27
(PVGeoEnv27) $ pip install PVGeo
Non-Windows users: Now you must install VTK to your virtual environment. For Linux and Mac users, simply install VTK through pip:
# Now install VTK
(PVGeoEnv27) $ pip install vtk
Linking PVGeo to ParaView
Now PVGeo is ready for use in your standard Python environment (non-Windows) and ready for use in ParaView! To use the PVGeo library as plugins in ParaView, please see the detailed explanation here.
