Jean Zay pre-/post-processing: The VTK library

The VTK library is a group of C++ classes intended for 2D/3D data visualisation and for image processing.

The VTK product may be accessed through the module command. Note that only one version of VTK is available:

$ module avail vtk
vtk/8.1.2-mpi

Moreover, it can be used in only one environment, mixing gcc/9.1.0 with intel-mpi/19.0.4 as is shown in the output of the display sub-command of module:

$ module display vtk
