The Scientific Visualization Studio is a part of the Scientific Applications and Visualization Branch of the Space Data and Computing Division at the NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center. It is tasked to provide advanced data visualization support to users of the NASA Center for the Computational Sciences and other NASA funded scientific researchers in both the space and Earth Sciences. Such support includes providing both software and expertise in visualizing large, complex, multidimensional data sets, and in creating videos, films, and other forms of hardcopy of the results. Hardware and software tools include a Cray Y/MP, a Convex C3240, a MasPar MP-1, a family of SGI workstations, video disks and recorders in all the international standards, color printers, photographic and movie transfer tools, and IDL, AVS, and FAST.

We demonstrate these capabilities, as applied to various Earth and space science data sets, through a variety of annotated images and a video.
