-'''Please note, data output of surface quantities is not active yet.'''
 
-PALM allows the output of instantaneous data as well as of temporally averaged data which is steered by the strings assigned to this parameter (see below).
+PALM allows the output of instantaneous data as well as of temporally averaged surface data, i.e. from horizontally and vertically orientated surfaces. These data can be further processed into Paraview readable VTK files, in order to visualize surface properties such as surface temperature or radiation balance, etc..
+Output is written into binary files.
+
+'''Please note, in order to visualize surface data with Paraview, a postprocessing tool is required in order to convert into VTK files. This postprocessing tool will be provided soon.'''
