The VisIVO - ViaLactea Visual Analytics (VLVA) tool, based on the VisIVO suite, is aimed to exploit a combination of all new-generation surveys of the Galactic Plane to study the star formation process of the Milky Way. It combines different types of visualization to perform the analysis exploring the correlation between different data, for example 2D intensity images with 3D molecular spectral cubes.
The implementation philosophy behind VLVA is to make transparent to the scientist the access to all informations without requiring technical skills to query the data source base (namely the ViaLactea Knowledge Base).
The documentation is available here.
Pre-compiled DMG and Debian packages are available in the Releases page.
To manually build and install ViaLactea, see INSTALL.md.
ViaLactea is also available as a Docker container. The container leverages Virtual Network Computing (VNC) and can be easily accessed through a browser. Check it out here.
