RESUMO

In this work the development of an aquifer poces ses viewer program called VPA is presented. The program is integrated as a module of a compu- tational package devoted to groundwater resources management named SPA (Simulation for Processes in Aquifers). The program was developed on SuSE Linux operational system utilizing KDE and GNOME graphical environments. The graphic templates for the VPA graphical user interface (GUI)were taken from Glade 2. That graphical library is written in C programming language and is distributed under the open source development license (GNU). Scientific visualization routines from Data Ex- plorer IBM OpenDX, also distributed under GNU license, were gathered to VPA giving to it capabi lity to generate two and three-dimensional gra- phics to numerical results. Thus, VPA constitutes the post-processing tool for reading numerical results from binary files and constructing graphics for fluid flow and pol lutant transport simulation in groundwater in the SPA environment. Such module shows itself an economic and robust alternative in scientific visualization to aquifer processes.
