Overview
VizSchema is a prescription for specifying visualization semantics: the attributes that one must attach to meshes and dataset in HDF5 files so that the data can be visualized. Lately it is being generalized to define provenance specification: information about how the data was generated. Eventually this metadata will be separated, and VizSchema will be only about visualization.
VizSchema visualization has been implemented in a plugin (called Vs) for the VisIt visualization tool and in a set of python scripts that plot using matplotlib. There are plans (though not immediate) to build a plugin for ParaView.
For now, cross-file issues (e.g., mesh in one file with data in another) are not being addressed.
