Abstract: ParaView is an open source, multi-platform data analysis and visualization tool designed to run on a variety of hardware from individual laptops to large supercomputers. With ParaView, users can interactively visualize 2D and 3D datasets defined on structured, adaptive and unstructured meshes or particles, animate these datasets over time, and manipulate them with a variety of filters. ParaView supports both interactive visualization through a graphical user interface (GUI) and scripted visualization, including offscreen rendering, and is an easy and enjoyable tool to learn.

In this beginner's workshop, we will explore ParaView’s interface, examine the types of data it can import, and learn how to use filters to build increasingly sophisticated visualization pipelines.
