Scientific Visualization

The two-day workshop begins with a brief overview of scientific visualization concepts, followed by hands-on sessions where participants learn to build visualization pipelines in COVISE and VISTLE .

The course also covers how to prepare models for Virtual Environments and set up Augmented Reality visualizations.

Participants have the option to take an exam at the end of the course to test their newly learned skills and acquire a course certificate, rather than a standard certificate of participation (see also our page on track certificates).

How to extend Vistle for your project and create automated visualization pipelines is taught in the accompanying course Programming for Vistle.

Learning outcomes

After completing this course, participants will be able to:

• understand key concepts of scientific visualization
• set up visualizations in COVISE and Vistle to explore and present
  simulation data
