E3D, the Euro3D visualization tool II: Mosaics, VIMOS data and large IFUs of the future
Sánchez, S. F.; Becker, T.; Kelz, A.. E3D, the Euro3D visualization tool II: Mosaics, VIMOS data and large IFUs of the future. Astronomische Nachrichten. 2004, Vol. Vol.325, Issue 2, p.171-174 , p. -2004.
In this paper, we describe the capabilities of E3D, the Euro3D visualization tool, to handle and display data created by large Integral Field Units (IFUs) and by mosaics consisting of multiple pointings. The reliability of the software has been tested with real data, originating from the PMAS instrument in mosaic mode and from the VIMOS instrument, which features the largest IFU currently available. The capabilities and limitations of the current software are examined in view of future large IFUs, which will produce extremely large datasets.
