  1. instructor / helpers / course introduction
  2. slides for this course
  3. let’s try to start ParaView on your computer
  4. review the program for this morning: you have 1h43m of videos to watch!
    • simple 1D/2D plotting with Matplotlib (covered in the Python course) and Plotly (notes linked from this course)
    • today’s focus is 3D visualization with ParaView
  5. pay attention to the slides that say “Exercise” in the title – we’ll do these in the Zoom session

By mid-day you should be comfortable with:

  • running ParaView and displaying Source objects
  • importing datasets from files into ParaView
  • applying filters to process data

If you have yor own spatially-defined dataset, try loading it into ParaView and sharing your experience (or visualizations!) in the mid-day session.
