Volume Visualisation
• Introduction:
§ VolVis = Visualisation of Volume data
• Picture/image 3D → 2D/3D/4D
• Projection, slicing, surface extraction, volume rendering,
etc..
§ Volume Data =
• 3D x 1D Data
• Scalar data, 3D space, space filling (dense – as opposed to
sparce)
§ User goals =
• To gain insight into 3D Data
• Depends strongly on what user is interested on (focus +
context)

• Challenges:
§ Rendering projection,
so much information and
so few pixels
Volume § Large datasets, e.g.,
Iso-surfacing
Voxel space Geometric Surface
(discrete) voxelisation (analytic)
