Nviz command-line module

The nviz_cmd module currently supports:

• Surfaces, attributes:
  • topography - raster map or constant values used as elevation (z values) for the current surface.
  • color - raster map or constant color to drape over the current surface.
  • mask - raster map that controls the areas displayed from the current surface.
  • transparency - raster map or constant value that controls the transparency of the current surface. The default is completely opaque.
  • shininess - raster map or constant value that controls the shininess (reflectivity) of the current surface.
  • emission - raster map or constant value that controls the light emitted from the current surface.
• For each loaded surface draw style:
  • mode - coarse,fine,both
  • style - wire,surface
  • shading - flat,gouraud
  • coarse and fine resolution
  • wire color
• 2D/3D vector line features:
  • line width, color
  • mode - flat,surface (only for 2D)
  • height (constant or above surface)
• 2D/3D vector point features:
  • marker size, width, color
  • marker - x,sphere,diamond,cube,box,gyro,aster,histogram
• Volume
  • mode - isosurface,slice (currently only isosurface mode implemented)
  • shading - flat,gouraud
  • position, resolution
• Volume isosurface mode, attributes:
  • level - reference isosurface level (height in map units).
  • color - raster map or constant color to drape over the current volume.
  • mask - raster map that controls the areas displayed from the current volume.
  • transparency - raster map or constant value that controls the transparency of the current volume. The default is completely opaque.
  • shininess - raster map or constant value that controls the shininess (reflectivity) of the current volume.
  • emission - raster map or constant value that controls the light emitted from the current volume.
• Settings
  • background color
• View parameters
  • position, height, perspective, twist, zexag
• Output options
  • filename, image size (width, height) and format (ppm, tif)
