Short Description of Functionality

Davit is an interactive tool for visualisation and exploration of results of hydronumerical models. Analysis of grids and results is possible as well. 2D and 3D data can be displayed.
A sophisticated GUI enables intuitive use of Davit, see picture. It has been developed by smile consult GmbH, Hannover (Germany).
