Teem is a coordinated group of libraries for representing, processing, and visualizing scientific raster data.

- Nrrd (and the unu command-line tool on top of it) supports a range of operations for transforming N-dimensional raster data (resample, crop, slice, project, histogram, etc.), as well as the NRRD file format for storing arrays and their meta-information.
- Gage: fast convolution-based measurements at arbitrary point locations in volume datasets (scalar, vector, tensor, etc.)
- Mite: a multi-threaded ray-casting volume render with transfer functions based on any quantity Gage can measure
- Ten: for estimating, processing, and visualizing diffusion tensor fields, including fiber tractography methods.
This package provides the Teem header files required to compile C++ programs that use Teem to do 3D visualisation.
