3D visualization of GRASS data with Paraview

Download Paraview at http://www.paraview.org (available for Linux, MacOSX and MS-Windows) (screenshot gallery)

2D/3D Vector export

Visualization

Start Paraview, load the VTK data,... it is fairly intuitive to use. (don't hesitate to expand this part)

paraview --data=/tmp/threelayer.vtk

RGB visualization

Data export with r.out.vtk:

r.out.vtk input=dsm_s_michele elevation=dsm_s_michele \
          rgbmaps=ofd_s_michele.red,ofd_s_michele.green,ofd_s_michele.blue \
          out=s_michele_color.vtk

Load into Paraview:

paraview --data=s_michele_color.vtk
  • In Paraview, click "Apply"
  • Select the "Display" tab and choose "Color by" to switch from input scalars to rgb scalars
  • Disable the "Map Scalars" check button in the display tab to avoid the use of a lookup table
