Custom Visualization Building Blocks
While IDL provides a rich set of pre-built visualization tools, it also provides complete access to a full programmatic graphics API. Create your own customized, interactive visualization application with the graphics and graphical user interface (GUI) widgets creation capabilities. With IDL, you can do everything from creating a general application for distribution to developing a solution optimized for a specific hardware configuration.

Pre-Built Functionality
Whether you’re an experienced IDL programmer or an ad-hoc user, IDL will reduce your programming time and effort. IDL provides interactive, pre-built applets for graphing, plotting, displaying, mapping, and more. Use them to open, analyze and visualize data and produce quality, publication-ready graphics or to build customized visualization environments.
