Software Integration Technologies Developed by D3D Teams and the AFRL

Summary: This project aims to integrate numerous codes and technologies developed under the ONR/DARPA “D3D” Digital 3D Structure Consortium, a 5 year $7.5M company-led multi-university consortium integrating a suite of multi-scale tomographic microstructural characterization tools with higher fidelity 3D microstructural simulation tools enabling greater accuracy in accelerated materials design and development. Current areas of focus are the implementation of IDL codes in C++ in the form of VTK and ParaView readers and filters.

Code Availability: All code can be currently accessed from the BlueQuartz Gitorious Server

The following ParaView Plugin modules were written as part of the D3D program:

TSL .ang File Reader
This plugin reads the TSL .ang files which are generated during an Orientation Imaging Microscopy scan.
