The GRASS Development Team and members of the user community have collected
numerous screenshots on these pages.
GRASS includes the NVIZ visualization suite which is capable of rendering
spectacular 3D snd 4D images and animations from 2D and 3D raster and
vector maps.
The keyframe animator in NVIZ can write directly to a MPEG or Xvid movie,
or create a series of still frame images for use with another encoder.
In addition, the r.out.mpeg module can be used to make a movie out of
a series of raster maps.
For details, see the
NVIZ
user manual.
It is also possible to export GRASS 2D and 3D data to other powerful
visualization software such as Paraview, MayaVi, and Vis5D+ using the
VTK, V5D, and VRML output modules.
