The goal of the Advanced Visualization Laboratory is to communicate science, inspire, and provide outreach to large, non-expert audiences about scientific concepts.

This CyberOutreach is the development and use of cyberinfrastructure to create high-end, high-fidelity, and high-resolution data-driven scientific visualizations. These visualizations are technically developed and aesthetically designed to support scientific narratives and provide insight to computational science.

In the creation of these scientific outreach productions for IMAX movies, full dome digital planetaria, and educational public television programs, the AVL team develops new cyber-technologies and advanced visualization tools and software production pipelines.

Each member of the team plays a unique role and contributes a variety of skills to the process, development and production. These expertise include advanced graphics and visualization techniques, artistic design, cenematic choreography, multimedia and video production, data management and render wrangling.
