It discusses how to write the data in the vtk format such that the output is either cell data or point data. VTK data format guide: <a href="http://www.vtk.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/file-formats.pdf">http://www.vtk.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/file-formats.pdf</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>If it is a black box, then perhaps you can look into using the filter ‘Cell Data To Point Data”. This may yield something helpful, although it is just an interpolation from the cell centers to the cell vertices(If I understand correctly).<br><br>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>Chris Neal<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:Calibri;color:black'>From: </span></b><span style='font-family:Calibri;color:black'>ParaView <paraview-bounces@paraview.org> on behalf of Thomas Oliveira <thomas.oliveira@gmail.com><br><b>Date: </b>Friday, August 19, 2016 at 11:20 AM<br><b>To: </b>ParaView <paraview@paraview.org><br><b>Subject: </b>[Paraview] Import Raw (binary) Files as Cell Data<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Dear all,<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>In a raw (binary) file, I have 4x4x5 values that represent the values on a grid composed by 4x4x5 blocks.
