[Paraview] GMT grids to 3D surface

[Lester Anderson]

Hello,

I can see how to load a GMT (netCDF) grid into Paraview but cannot seem to
see how to translate it into an elevation surface.

The data is a gridded surface of a subducting slab geometry, with X, Y as
longitude and latitude respectively, and Z as the depth range 0 to -700 km.
Here the Z value represents the scalar depth.

Do I need to pre-process the data prior to loading into Paraview? When
loaded the Z-dimension is 1 so it is still essentially a 2D surface.
Loading point data (eg earthquake solutions) is fine as I can edit the data
table, but not sure what else I need to get a slab surface in correctly:
for plotting the Z-dimension would need to have an extent of 0 to 699
(d=700).

Be good to know how I can solve this simply.

Cheers

Lester
