You need to explain your data a little better. Is your data the
actual contour lines and you just need to visualize them in 3 space?
Are the X,Y values on some kind of regular grid with just a varying Z
or do all x,y, and z change with no regularity?
What you may want to do is still say it's gridded data, not scattered
(the rectangular grid in the Grid type), and then bring in the
locations. In this case, go to the describe data and put in your grid
size as 73 x 121, but then in the field list, add a component named
"locations" as a float 3-vector. You'll notice that the origin,delta
pairs gray out as you would expect.

Hi,
This may be a rather simple question, but this is my first time using
OpenDX. I have a dataset consisting of 8834 X,Y,Z coordinated, which
represent a surface in 3D space (73 x 121). I want to be able to view
this surface in OpenDX, and draw 73 contour lines (each 121 points
"long"). My problem is that I'm not even sure how to import it-- when I
use the DX Prompter, I've been trying to use either spreadsheet data or
scattered data, but I can't seem to work with the spreadsheet data, and
the scattered data requires 3 positions plus a value (which I could just
force at, say, 1, and do an isosurface-- but I don't know how to define
the "data" parameter of the field to a fixed value). I know my data is
good... if I do a "Visualize Data" from within the prompter, I can
actually see the desired outcome... but I don't know how to assemble the
modules myself. Thanks.
