+* The Visualization Toolkit [http://www.vtk.org VTK is an open-source, freely available software system for 3D computer graphics, image processing and visualization. 
+* VTK consists of a C++ class library and several interpreted interface layers including !Tcl/Tk, Java, and [http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Python Python].
+* [http://www.kitware.com Kitware], whose team created and continues to extend the toolkit, offers professional support and consulting services for VTK. 
+* VTK supports a wide variety of visualization algorithms including: scalar, vector, tensor, texture, and volumetric methods; and advanced modeling techniques such as: implicit modeling, polygon reduction, mesh smoothing, cutting, contouring, and Delaunay triangulation. 
+* VTK has an extensive information visualization framework, has a suite of 3D interaction widgets, supports parallel processing, and integrates with various databases on GUI toolkits such as Qt and Tk. 
+* VTK is cross-platform and runs on Linux, Windows, Mac and Unix platforms.

+== Setup Environmental Variables for C++ ==
+{{{#!bash
+$ module load vtk
+}}}
+
+[[Example VTK-C++]]
+
+== Use VTK with anaconda python ==
+To use anaconda python
+{{{#!bash
+$ module load anaconda
+}}}
+
+But the current version of anaconda doesn't have ''vtk'' package in default.
+
+To install vtk package in local, first you have to create local python clone.
+
+{{{#!bash
+[fuji@cypress2 VTK]$ conda create -n my_root --clone=/share/apps/anaconda/2.1.0
+src_prefix: '/share/apps/anaconda/2.1.0'
+dst_prefix: '/home/fuji/envs/my_root'

+# To activate this environment, use:
+# $ source activate my_root
+#
+# To deactivate this environment, use:
+# $ source deactivate
+#
+}}}
+
+Then do
+
+{{{#!bash
+$ source activate my_root
+}}}
+
+Now you can install vtk package,
+{{{#!bash
+$ conda install vtk
+}}}
+
+=== From next time, to use anaconda python ===
+{{{#!bash
+$ module load anaconda
+$ source activate my_root
+}}}
