Re: VISAD 3D plots

Arvind:

Using the TextAdapter in VisAD, you would make your file look like:
(x,y -> val)
x,y,val
10,15,.6
20,5,.8
5,10,.7

This says that your 'data object' is a mapping from a 2D domain (with components called 'x' and 'y') to a single range component (called 'val'). The second line describes the ordering of these values in the file, and then the data follows.

This little Python script:

from visad.python.JPythonMethods import *
import subs
a=load("arvind.txt")
dt = getDomainType(a)
rt = getRangeType(a)
maps = makeMaps(dt[0],'x', dt[1],'y', rt[0],'z')
disp=makeDisplay(maps)
maps[0].setRange(0,30)
maps[1].setRange(0,30)
d=getDomain(a)
for i in xrange(len(a)):
  val = a[i][0].getValue()
  x = d[i][0].getValue()
  y = d[i][1].getValue()
  disp.drawLine( ((x,x),(y,y),(val,0.)), width=4)
disp.showDisplay()

Will produce the results in the attached image.

I hope this is a good starting point for you.
