Author: Thomas Pönitz (0425863)
This application has been developed in the course of the Visualisierung LU during winter term 2008/2009.
It enables you to visualize flow data and is based on [1] Creating evenly-spaced streamlines of arbitrary density (1997) from Bruno Jobard and Wilfird Lefer.

- Line Control panel: Controls the flow lines (step size, line distance, integration method, ...)
