Geoscientific visualization tools for VTK and ParaView

PVGeo

Share this project:

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/activate your Python virtual environment (we highly recommend using anaconda) and install PVGeo through pip:

pip install PVGeo

Now PVGeo is ready for use in your standard Python environment (2.7 or 3.x) with all dependencies installed! Go ahead and test your install:

python -c "import PVGeo; print(PVGeo.__version__)"
