WHAT IS IT?
This is a framework for the Visualization Lab at the Vienna University of Technology. 

HOW TO USE?
Open the solution file. It was written under MS Visual Studio 2003. The code is very easy portable.
Download some datafiles from our webpage http://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/courses/Visualisierung/LU.html
Type the name into the loading routine in main.cpp and run.

WHAT DOES IT DO?
You will see some reports comming out to the console. It's the basic data loading log.
After that comes a demonstration of all what this framework can do... the velocity value in the middle of the dataset.

DOES IT HAVE ANY GRAPHICS?
No. The neccesary headers, libraries and dll are included in the package. Inclusion and linking is already set in the project settings.
You can choose your own approach to graphics initialization, or you can just copy the one from the VolVis framework.

ANYTHING ELSE?
Feel free to study the code and to rewrite anything you don't like. 
Also there are some intentionally slow and inaccurate methods (value lookups), we hope you will improve them.
Remember that each dataset is different and unique. 

DIFFERENT DATASETS?
The geometry is considered to be (0,0) in the top-left corner and (dimX,dimY) in the lower-right. 
Please note that it affects not only geometry, but also the velocity vectors (that are consistent with this coordinate system).
