Updated Widgets from INT Bring More Performance and Features for E&P Software Developers

HOUSTON, Texas (October 28, 1997): Interactive Network Technologies, Inc. (INT) is pleased to announce updates to its "industry standard" widget libraries, Geoscience Library Release 3.3 and View3D Release 2.0. Both the Geoscience and View3D widget libraries have a strong following and these releases introduce enhancements that will interest developers of data visualization applications in the E&P. In addition, View3D is useful in other imaging and data visualization areas. 

The Geoscience Library R3.3 has seen enhancements in the Seismic Widget, including the ability to supply a color pixel array for each sample of a specified trace, provide greater fill control, and additional header access functions. Greater performance for the SEGY widget has been achieved through the addition of Unix memory mapping. Also, additional formatting functions have been added to the contour widget. 

View3D R2.0 has seen some major additions, including a new Volumetic object that is used to visualize 3D arrays of sample data. This type of visualization is very useful in medical imaging and scientific visualization applications. A new built-in editor has been introduced, which will allow clipping in up to six planes. 

Also included in this release is additional support for TIFF image files, which when coupled with a movie player function, allow TIFF files to be added to movie files. Furthermore, some memory constraints have been removed, in order to handle data sets larger than physical memory. 

Both View3D and the Geoscience library are powerful tools, designed to ease the development of graphical applications in the UNIX/Motif® environment. 

Availability 
These widgets are now shipping and are available for all major UNIX platforms.
