BlenderNC is an open source add-on and Python module to visualize netCDF, grib, and zarr datasets in Blender.

BlenderNC builds upon xarray and dask to lazy load, manipulate, and display datasets as images in Blender.

Why BlenderNC?

Science visualization is a fundamental part of science communication and the exploration of large datasets. However, production quality real-time visualization and animation of scientific data has remained unreachable to the scientific community. BlenderNC main goal is to facilitate the generation of quality animations of scientific gridded data with a powerful and simple interface. For example:

  • Quick load of datasets:
  • Nodes tree for more complex visualizations:
  • Math computations in BlenderNC node tree.
