Time Domain Animation of Surface Data

In this episode of our Tips and Tricks, we’ve provided a video tutorial which covers the preparation of data and EVS/MVS applications to perform animation of time domain surface data such as water tables and ground subsidence.

Array of Slices in MVS

In this episode of our Tips and Tricks, we’ve provided a video tutorial on how to create arrays of slices.  Instead of using multiple slice modules, each of which creates only a single slice, we’ll demonstrate a method to create any number of parallel slices perpendicular to the x and/or y axes. Instead of using multiple slice modules, each of which...

Isolines In Depth

We get quite a few questions about isolines, usually about how to adjust properties.  In this post I want to cover some important features in isolines as well as how to get the most out of this important module. The isolines module in EVS-PRO and MVS is very sophisticated and has some features we haven’t seen in any other product.  A series of contours...

Plume_Shell vs. Plume_Volume

This tip will explain the differences between the new plume_shell and plume_volume modules. Understanding the important differences between these modules can significantly improve your visualizations.  Primarily, the output from plume_shell is a hollow shell and the output from plume_volume is a volume of solid cells.  Plume_volume provides a volumetric subset...

Adding Parameters/Modules to an existing animation

When adding an additional parameter or module to the animator after you have created a handful of scenes it may speed things up if you change the settings for the parameter to what you want for all currently existing scenes prior to adding the parameter to the animator. For example, if you are adding an object (like an additional plume_shell) that you want to...

Hardware Recommendations and the Future of EVS and MVS

A common question asked of us at C Tech is information regarding suggestions for computer purchases. Read on to see our current recommendations, as well as a sneak peek at features in the upcoming Version 9 release of EVS and MVS. EVS and MVS both are advanced software packages. Choosing the correct system configuration can help EVS perform tremendously, and is...
