NDViewer

Current Prototype

• Supports loading any YAXArray.jl
• Simple YAML syntax for slices and plots, which can be targeted from A UI to create viewer for a dataset
• Makie plots and axes as plug-ins with attributes and arguments
• Simple Tyler.jl plug-in prototype
• Rudementary UI and layout for viewing slices with Colorbar

Goals

• Usage for large simulation or any other use case that generates lots of 2d-4d data (satellites, neuro imaging, etc.)
• Drag & Drop HDF5 or NetCDF files (or any other multi dimensional array format that we can read in Julia) and get simple UI to select columns and visual styles
• Offer UI for simple usage, but expose all functionality programmatically as well
• Be able to add any other Makie plot to viewer programmatically
• All functionality is exposed via very simple plugins, which anyone can extent (e.g. offering surface plot of the data in the viewer is a plugin, slicing dims with a slider is one as well. E.g. a user could add a Tyler.jl plugin, to be able to plot maps on top of data).
• Have sliders to select slice or step through time
• Do analytics on data slices and display interactive overview plots
• Work with large time series of 2d/3d data (terabytes if streaming)
• One click export of movies animating selected time/slice
• Executable that runs on windows/linux/osx, or stream data to WGLMakie in browser
