Summary

The features and the design concept of the visualization software HiVision are presented. The platform HiVision which was primarily developed for the exploration of data in the area of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), is being used nowadays in numerous applications related to numerical simulation. The main strength of the HiVision package lies in its object-oriented design and in the integration of several powerful external toolkits (VTK,Qt,MPI). The features of HiVision are demonstrated by means of selected examples.

This work has been supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG) through SFB 359 (Project E) at the University of Heidelberg.
