[Paraview] Opening xyz file /DEM in Paraview

2013-04-15 Thread Hedieh Ebrahimi
Hello all,

I have a Dataset with .xyz extension. I couldn´t open it in Paraview, so I
converted the file to .csv

now I have a dataset with 3 arrays corresponding to x, y and z co-ordinates.

I used the "Table to Points" filter and I converted the my coordinates to
points.


Could anybody please tell me how I can open .xyz or .xyz.dat or .dat in
Paraview to represent Digital Elevation Model?

Second, If I am importing csv. files in to paraview, what can i do to get
some kind of grid out of these points to better represent the geometry that
I was planning to show using the DEM ?

Thanks for any help

If you actually have data in DEM format (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USGS_DEM), you can open it in ParaView by
simply adding a .dem extension to the file. I am not sure if this is the
case though. .xyz is a pretty common extension so it is hard for us to help
without knowing specifics.

If you load in a set of points with csv reader, you can use one of the
Delaunay filters to mesh them.

Best,

Is it ASCII gridded XYZ format?  If yes hopefully by the end of this week I
will have a GDAL based raster reader to read this format but it won;'t make
it to VTK 6 release because of time constraint.

Thanks,
