Title: amira: A Highly Interactive System for Visual Data Analysis
Abstract: The software system Amira has been designed to close the gap among the ease of use, power, interactivity of monolithic special-purpose software, and the flexibility and extensibility of data-flow-oriented visualization environments. One major focus of the software is the visualization and analysis of volumetric data, which is common in medicine, biology, and microscopy. With Amira, volumes can be displayed and segmented, 3D polygonal models can be reconstructed, and these models can be further processed and converted into tetrahedral volume grids. Due to its flexible design, Amira can also perform many other tasks, including finite-element postprocessing, flow visualization, and visualization of molecules. This chapter discusses the fundamental concepts, techniques, and features of Amira.
