This course teaches researchers how to locate, inspect, and visualize simulation output produced on OBLIVION or any supercomputer. It focuses on the scientific data formats used in the local simulation stack—DAT, HDF5, NetCDF, ADIOS2 (BP), and VTK—and on ParaView and complementary tools for exploration and plotting.
Participants will learn what files mean, how to examine them safely on the cluster or after transfer, and how to build a basic visualization workflow.
The course further includes, in Day 1, a brief orientation to the OBLIVION working environment and modules for participants who are new to the system.
