| | 5 | Information about surface properties as well as the actual physical condition at horizontal and vertical surfaces can be visualized with Paraview via VTK-files which allows the input of unstructured data. |
| | 6 | With revision -r 3421 allows the output of instantaneous and time-averaged unstructured surface data, i.e. from horizontally and vertically orientated surfaces (building walls and roofs, Earth surface). 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.. |
| | 7 | Output is written into binary files [[../iofiles#SURFACE_DATA_BIN|SURFACE_DATA_BIN]] and [[../iofiles#SURFACE_DATA_AV_BIN|SURFACE_DATA_AV_BIN]], respectively. Please note, for the moment, each MPI-process writes into a single file. This may be revised later. |

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.. |
