Hi,

Harry Edmon of the Department of Atmospheric Sciences, University of
Washington, today announced the release of IVE (Interactive
Visualization Environment), a software package designed to interactively
display and analyze gridded data.  IVE can display data on staggered
meshes and arbitrary curvilinear grids.  It can display scalar fields
and vector fields, overlay plots, loop plots, perform algebraic
computations on the gridded data, and calculate derivatives.

IVE uses netCDF for the data input format, and uses the NCAR Graphics
Library to produce graphical output (a license for NCAR Graphics
<URL:http://ngwww.ucar.edu/> is required to run IVE).  The source code
for IVE is freely available, and the documentation is available on-line.
For more information, see the IVE description in the "Software for
Manipulating or Displaying NetCDF Data" web page at
