Jmol users:
I've written up a little about my proposed JVXL file format for
transmitting molecular surface data over the web.
For discussion....
http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs/JVXL-format.pdf
Abstract
A format specification for the Jmol voxel (JVXL) file format is proposed. The
purpose of the JVXL file format is to provide a mechanism for the efficient
delivery of molecular surface data (orbitals, electron density plots,
electrostatic potential maps, etc.) from a web server to a client page in a
compact manner. It was designed to be used specifically with the open-source
Jmol molecular viewing and analysis applet (http://jmol.sourceforge.net), but
the format has general utility anywhere a Gaussian CUBE file might be employed.
Whereas typical CUBE files are on the order of 1-10 Mb in size, the derived JVXL
files are 400-1000 times smaller, on the order of 5-10Kb, allowing for a far
more efficient use of bandwidth. The Jmol applet can read and write the JVXL
file format, and currently it is the only application that can be used to create
JVXL files.
