VisIt is an interactive parallel visualization and graphical analysis tool for viewing scientific data.

Users can quickly generate visualizations from their data, animate them through time, manipulate them, and save the resulting images for presentations. VisIt contains a rich set of visualization features so that you can view your data in a variety of ways.

It can be used to visualize scalar and vector fields defined on two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) structured and unstructured meshes.

It was designed to interactively handle very large data set sizes in the terascale range, and works well down to small data sets in the kilobyte range.

What's New in This Release:
This release includes a number of bugfixes, new features, and the new "Getting Data Into VisIt" manual.

This release adds support for 8 new file formats: FLUENT, OpenFOAM, GGCM, Vis5D, and more.
This release also adds new operators and data analysis capabilities.
