In this case study we present an open-source visualization application with a data-parallel novel application architecture. The architecture is unique because is uses the Tcl scripting language to synchronize the user integuce with the VTK parallel visualization pipeline and parallel-rendering module. The resulting application shows scalable performance, and is easily extendable becuuse of its simple modulur architecture. We demonstrate the application with a 9.8 gigabyte structured-grid ocean model
