SYNOPSIS

imagevis3d [options] files...

DESCRIPTION

imagevis3d is a volume rendering application designed to handle extremely large data. By bricking a dataset (splitting it into constant-sized chunks) and only requiring one chunk to be resident in main memory, ImageVis3D's memory usage remains constant across dataset sizes.

ImageVis3D uses Tuvok to render and composite the bricks. Tuvok relies heavily on GLSL to provide accelerated volume rendering. As such, a somewhat recent video card is required. In practice, this effectively means that Linux systems currently require a nvidia card with nvidia's drivers.

OPTIONS

The command line options of imagevis3d are:

-script filename

Runs the script file given in filename.

-log [filename, -]

Logs debug information filename, or stdout (-)

-loglevel [0, 1, 2]

Changes the verbosity of the log.
