3D Data Visualisation

Monday, 10.11. - Thursday, 13.11.2025 · 09:00 am - 06:00 pm
HIDA Hub

In this four-day workshop, participants will have the opportunity to explore and present their own volumetric datasets through 3D visualization. The program begins with impulse sessions on key topics such as volume rendering, mesh processing, and browser-based visualization. These techniques will then be applied directly to the participants’ datasets with guidance from experts.

Established tools such as Fiji, VTK, Blender, and Neuroglancer will be used throughout the workshop. Basic programming skills are advantageous to fully benefit from the training. The workshop concludes with a joint session where the visualizations and experiences are presented.

Learning Goals

Day 1: 3D Data Types and Visualization Strategies

  • Differentiate 3D data types, such as voxel-based images, meshes, and point clouds.

  • Explore existing visualization methods for each data type.

  • Learn the basics of volumetric rendering and mesh processing.

Day 2: Web-Based Rendering and Visual Enhancement

  • Use browser-based tools like Neuroglancer for 3D visualization.

  • Improve your visualizations using Blender.

Day 3: Storytelling with Visualization / Project Work

  • Choose effective colors.

  • Start working on your own datasets with guidance.

Day 4: Project Work and Presentations

  • Work on your visualization projects.

  • Participate in group feedback and showcase.

Prerequisites

Participants should apply with a 3D dataset they wish to visualize during the workshop. Please ensure your dataset is publicly accessible and provide a link to it when applying, along with a brief description of its context. Basic programming skills—especially in Python—are helpful for engaging with tools and scripting tasks we'll cover.

Target Group

This workshop is open to anyone interested in 3D data visualization, regardless of their field or experience level.
