== About the book ==

The Schloss Dagstuhl seminars on Scientific Visualization provide a dynamic
setting for ongoing and future research in visualization. Numerous contributions
in this active field originated at Schloss Dagstuhl, and were extended to
large-scale collaborative research and high-impact works. This volume of the
Dagstuhl Follow-Ups series contains the proceedings from the 2009 seminar (see
http://www.dagstuhl.de/09251).

Emphasizing the heterogeneity of this research field, the Dagstuhl Seminar
Scientific Visualization in 2009 focused on a wide range of visualization topics
such as "Knowledge Assisted Visualization", "Visual Exploration Environment",
"Biomedical Visualization", and "Visualization of Vector- and Tensorfields".

In the course of the seminar, leading international scientists presented state
of-the-art summaries as well as novel research results and ideas. Among the
discussed key topics were:
- Interaction Techniques/Frameworks
- Feature Definition and Extraction/Reconstruction
- Visualization Metaphors
