The need for efficient interpolation arises in many use cases for spectral element simulations. Towards this end, we present a fast and robust GPU-enable interpolation utility for NekRS, a spectral-element, Navier-Stokes solver. This utility is based on the findpts and findpts eval routines from the gslib library. To demonstrate the functionality, we added support for particle tracking. The GPU implementation of the interpolation allows for tracking 100 times more particles for the same computational cost.
