S2PLOT: A Three-Dimensional Plotting Library

S2PLOT is an advanced three-dimensional plotting library with support for standard and enhanced display devices. The S2PLOT library was written in C and can be used with C, C++ and FORTRAN programs on GNU/Linux and Apple/OSX. The S2PLOT architecture supports dynamic geometry and can be used to plot both static and time-evolving data sets. S2PLOT is based on the OpenGL graphics library.

With a programming interface inspired by PGPLOT, S2PLOT provides researchers with elegant techniques for displaying and interactively exploring 3D data sets directly from their program code.

Announcement: Version 2.6 (including source!) is now available for download to members of the S2PLOT Google Group.
New! How to embed S2PLOT visualisations in PDF Documents and on the Web with Flash. Announcement: Version 2.4 is now available for download - open source version delayed until March 2009.
Announcement: Please see the publications page for our papers on using interactive 3D figures in PDF files.
