  Description     : Visualization Toolkit (VTK) version 6

The Visualization Toolkit (VTK) is an open-source, freely available 
software system for 3D computer graphics, image processing and visualization. 
VTK consists of a C++ class library and several interpreted interface layers 
including Tcl/Tk, Java, and Python. Kitware, whose team created and continues 
to extend the toolkit, offers professional support and consulting services for
VTK. VTK supports a wide variety of visualization algorithms including: scalar, 
vector, tensor, texture, and volumetric methods; and advanced modeling 
techniques such as: implicit modeling, polygon reduction, mesh smoothing, 
cutting, contouring, and Delaunay triangulation. VTK has an extensive 
information visualization framework, has a suite of 3D interaction widgets, 
supports parallel processing, and integrates with various databases on GUI 
toolkits such as Qt and Tk. VTK is cross-platform and runs on Linux, Windows, 
Mac and Unix platforms. 

The package will be maintained in Debian Science Team.
