VisIt 3.2.1 – Visualization and Analysis tool for Viewing Scientific Data

VisIt 3.2.1

:: DESCRIPTION

VisIt is a free interactive parallel visualization and graphical analysis tool for viewing scientific data on Unix and PC platforms. 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. VisIt was designed to handle very large data set sizes in the terascale range and yet can also handle small data sets in the kilobyte range.

TopiaryExplorer 1.0 – Interactive Phylogenetic Tree Viewing software

TopiaryExplorer 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

TopiaryExplorer supports visualization of very large trees (it has been tested on trees with > 100,000 tips) while providing convenient interfaces for decorating the tree with taxonomic information, automatically coloring branches based on data about environments where they are observed, selecting subtrees for independent analysis, interactive expanding and collapsing of clades, and many other features.

Diurnal 2.0 – Mining and Viewing Diurnal and Circadian Microarray data for Arabidopsis thaliana, poplar, and rice

Diurnal 2.0

:: DESCRIPTION

Diurnal is a web-based tool for accessing the diurnal and circadian genome-wide expression results of genes from several array experiments conducted on common model plants. The expression patterns of particular loci or array probes can be looked up under a variety of different conditions. For each condition, every expression pattern has been modeled using a periodic pattern, which has then been used to estimate the phase of peak expression.

GelScape 20030728 – Web-based Gel Viewing and Annotation System

GelScape 20030728

:: DESCRIPTION

GelScape offers a freely available, platform-independent approach to analyzing standard 1D and 2D protein gels.  GelScape uses advanced concepts in “network computing” enabling one to upload, download, save, print, view, annotate, edit, label, compare and spot mark just about any gel image.  GelScape also allows one to calculate spot intensity, prepare HTML image maps and archive annotated gels to a public database (GelBank) – all using an easy-to-use, intuitive browser interface.
