<div dir="ltr"><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">I haven't used VTK before, but I have prior experience in C++ with OpenGL, OpenCV, and Qt, and I recently started working with GLSL too. (Some of my small projects can be seen here <a href="https://github.com/jatin3893" target="_blank">https://github.com/jatin3893</a> and <span style="line-height:19.049999237060547px;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:small"><a href="http://parekhjatin.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">http://parekhjatin.wordpress.com/</a> </span>)</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">While going through the ideas page for GSOC 2014, I came across the topic related to "<span style="line-height:19.049999237060547px;font-family:sans-serif">Climate and Geo-spatial data visualization", which seemed quite attractive.</span></div>

I have been working on C++, OpenGL and image related work since quite a long time. Also, GSOC's duration is completely during my summer vacations, and so I can devote most of my time for this, from now itself.</span></font></div>

<span style="line-height:19.049999237060547px;font-family:sans-serif">With respect to understanding VTK's library, I am sure I can grasp it quick enough to submit something substantial by the end of the program.</span></div>

<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br><span style="line-height:19.049999237060547px;font-family:sans-serif">Also, could someone please direct me to areas of VTK's source/examples which I should be concentrating on keeping in mind the topic. Also, are there any references which I can go through for understanding the topic better?</span></div>
