UDAV – universal data array visualization

fast and interactive data plotting on the base of MathGL library

Features

What is UDAV?

UDAV is cross-platform program for data arrays visualization based on MathGL library. It support wide spectrum of graphics, simple script language and visual data handling and editing. It has window interface for data viewing, changing and plotting. Also it can execute MGL scripts, setup and rotate graphics and so on.

Detailed information about MGL scripts you may read here. Example of usage and some hints can be read here.

UDAV features

Wide spectrum of graphics. At this moment (MathGL v.1.9) more than 55 general types of graphics are supported.
There are smoothed lightning, transparency, TeX symbols and formulas, arbitrary curvelinear coordinates and a lot of other things (see MathGL features).
Simple and fast data and formulas plotting:

You can plot the data by one click (just type 'udav datafile.dat' or open it in UDAV)
You can see the script and graphical result at the same time.
You can rotate, shift, zoom plot by toolbuttons or by mouse.
You can switch on/off lightning and transparency.
You can run animation.

Table for data editing support up to 3-dimensional data arrays.
Minimal set of tools for data handling (smoothing, resizing, cropping, filling by formula, summation, differentiation, histogram creation and so on).
Export graphics to bitmap (PNG, JPEG or EPS) and vector (EPS or SVG) files.
