The term "visualization for scientific computing," shortened to "scientific visualization," refers to the methodology of quickly and effectively displaying scientific data. Once a computer experiment has been performed, the results must be interpreted. As the volume of data accumulated from computations or from recorded measurements increases, it becomes more important to analyze data quickly. It is also important to design future experiments focused on examining interesting relationships. While looking at statistics can provide insights, it is difficult for the human mind to comprehend large volumes of numbers. Visualization techniques are another approach for interpreting large data sets, providing insights that might be missed by statistical methods.

Scientific visualization is the process of representing raw data output as images that can aid in understanding the meaning of the computer experiment results. However, the purpose of scientific visualization is insight. The pictures provide a vehicle for...
