vtkUnstructuredGrid is the right dataset (and the only one) that can
handle tetrahedra. All standard filters can be used on
vtkUnstructuredGrid (like vtkContourFilter)
field data on center of tetra can be set as cell data.
field data on nodes of tetra can be set as point data.
field data on intermediate topology like faces cannot be
handled directly. The common workaround is to pass such field as cell
data and apply a vtkGeometryFilter on the UnstructuredGrid. Since the
output is a surface, the data appear only on the faces.
