We are currently developing a tomographic approach for analyzing remote sensing observations of the coronal and heliospheric density and velocity structure (e.g. Thomson scattering and interplanetary scintillation observations). Parallel to the tomographic techniques we are developing the visualization tools required for displaying and manipulating the three-dimensional tomographic results. We use a common graphics interface language (OpenGL, supported through IDL), standard visual interfaces (pop-up menus, sliders, point-and-click methods) and standard hardware (PCs). The visualization should be capable of simultaneously displaying the tomographic density and velocity model and should allow the user to dynamically view the heliospheric model using any predefined flight path through the three-dimensional cube covered by the model. For real-time volume rendering we use a Mitsubishi Volume Pro PCI board. We present our current progress in this visualization effort. Further details can be found on http://casswww.ucsd.edu/solar/index.html. This work was supported through NASA grant NAG5-9423.
