Tecplot provides, downloadable from their website, a library called tecio.
It's limited to a header and a .so (I think .dll is available on
windows...), and it's very...fortranish...
But it can read and write the binary tecplot format, and is available
for most platforms in common use today. Once you have the tecplot
format in memory (as a 2d array of doubles), you can write out any
format you please, including any of those available in vmtk.
Alternately, you can use swig to wrap a small C program in a python
module, and then write a pypes/vmtkScripts compatible python script that
reads the tecplot binary file into memory, populates the appropriate VTK
data structure (vtkPolyData most likely), and then passes it down into
the next step in the vmtk pipeline.

Hi Luca,
To test the methodology, by changing the header as
VARIABLES = X,Y,Z,WSS
ZONE T="ew", N=388, E=564, ZONETYPE=FETriangal
I could read the dat file correctly for a triangular surface mesh and
write as a vtp file in VMTK. The contour plot of unwrapped vessel can
be created in Matlab.
Tecplot does not have the functionality of converting a quadrilateral
surface mesh to a triangular mesh. Tecplot does not export ascii data
in earlier version; only binary files are supported. Paraview can read
the binary output file from Tecplot, but I did not find a way of
exporting a file that is readable by VMTK. Do you know if I can do
something in Paraview or any other software? I attached one example
Tecplot binary plt file in case you need it. Thank you very much.
Yong
