The pages in this section walk you through the process of creating a visualization pipeline, starting with selecting and configuring a data source, and then adding operations that produce data suitable for viewing. Examples of surface-based and volumetric visualizations are presented. Two videos then show visualization pipelines being constructed in real time.
