Arun,
	I have been using 3d vectors per coordinate easily with 
vtkStructuredPoints class. So I'll recommend you to use it.

As for the vizualization you have two options:

1. vtkHedgeHog
2. vtkGlyph3D

There is examples for both of theses classes on the web.

BTW see also:

and

If you are working with very big image files you might have some weird 
seg fault (I am working on a Linux box).
