Summary : VTK header files for building C++ code
Description :
VTK is a software system for image processing, 3D graphics, volume
rendering and visualization. VTK includes many advanced algorithms
(e.g. surface reconstruction, implicit modelling, decimation) and
rendering techniques (e.g. hardware-accelerated volume rendering,
LOD control).
This provides development libraries and header files required to
compile C++ programs that use VTK to do 3D visualisation.
