  1. Putting Your World on the GeoWall:Building Content with Free and Common Software Chuck Anderson Center for Kinetics Analysis, Penn State University Teaching with New Geoscience Tools Feb. 10, 2008

  2. “ Can we make our own GeoWall content?” - any administrator being asked to fund a GeoWall

  3. Data that can be put on the GeoWall • Stereo-pair images and video • Surface topography with/without imagery • Object models • Molecular/mineral structures • Confocal microscopy • Volumetric data • CT data • Velocity data • Time series • In short, anything

  4. Paths to the GeoWall • Stereo capable software • ArcScene, CrystalMaker, GEON IDV, VMD, Chime & Jmol • GeoWall software • Wallview, Immersaview, Walkabout • Free tools to create files for GeoWall apps • 3DEM, MICRODEM • Common software to create files • PhotoShop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver • Visualization Toolkit (VTK) • www.vtk.org

  5. VTK • Free open source visualization package • Works on Mac, Windows and all flavors of Unix • Object oriented programming model • Programmable in C++, Tcl/Tk, Java, Python • Stereo display on clone mode capable GeoWalls • Can output VRML models, stereo images and image sequences for creating stereo video • Not just for making GeoWall content

  6. Tcl/Tk script sample www.ceka.psu.edu/geowall
