=== Three-dimensional data sets === For 3D scalar fields the primary methods are [[volume rendering]] and [[isosurface]]s. Methods for visualizing vector fields include glyphs (graphical icons) such as arrows, [[Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines|streamlines and streaklines]], particle tracing, [[line integral convolution]] (LIC) and topological methods. Later, visualization techniques such as hyperstreamlines<ref>{{cite journal|last=Delmarcelle|first=T|author2=Hesselink, L. |title=Visualizing second-order tensor fields with hyperstreamlines|journal=IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications |year=1993|volume=13|issue=4|pages=25β33|doi=10.1109/38.219447|hdl=2060/19950012873|s2cid=7698377|hdl-access=free}}</ref> were developed to visualize 2D and 3D tensor fields.
