Volume Data Tools
- many formats of volume data maps (electron density, electrostatic potential, others) read, several written
- interactive threshold adjustment, multiple isosurfaces (mesh or solid), transparent renderings
- fitting of atomic coordinates to maps and maps to maps
- density maps can be created from atomic coordinates
- markers can be placed in maps and connected with smooth paths
- display of single data planes, optionally as topographic maps
- volume data time series playback and morphing
- many tools for segmenting and editing maps
- Gaussian smoothing, Fourier transform
- measurements: surface area, surface-enclosed volume, map symmetry, others

Famous quotes containing the words volume, data and/or tools:
“The other 1000 are principally the ‘old Yankee stock,’ who have lost the town, politically, to the Portuguese; who deplore the influx of the ‘off-Cape furriners’; and to whom a volume of genealogy is a piece of escape literature.”
—For the State of Massachusetts, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it—all my life.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“A life I didn’t choose
chose me: even
my tools are the wrong ones
for what I have to do.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
