Abstract

In this paper, a general framework is presented for using Virtual Reality Techniques in the domain of Scientific Visualization. It is argued that "visualizing" it is not the same as "seeing", but an inferential process to understand reality. A definition of Enhanced Reality is also presented, and how visual models can be used in order to obtain additional information about the dynamic nature of natural and social phenomena.
