Description

A generally available and easy-to-use viewer for the simultaneous visualisation of the ASDEX Upgrade vacuum vessel computer aided design models, diagnostics and magnetic geometry, solutions of 3D plasma simulation codes and 2D camera images was developed. Here we report on the working principle of this software and give several examples of its technical and scientific application.
