[vtkusers] Reading a single 3D file?

[Praveen Thiagarajan]

This is actually a question rather than any answer. I have seen Volumizer
examples in IRIX using a 3D tiff format. I was wondering if that was a
standard format (I should think it is, but have never seen it used
elsewhere) and is there anyone developing a VTK reader for it.

If it is a standard format and no one else is developing or planning to
develop it, I wouldn't mind developing a VTK reader class for it
(although I have no experience writting a VTK Class).
