A series of questions asked users about their current and future needs. Some important issues were raised over the changing use of visualisation tools for Computed Tomography results.

Executive Summary:

1. Software that is more popular now has moved to Avizo, ImageJ and Paraview
2. Lots of reconstruction development (filtrers etc) but little segmentation
3. CCPi core activities will focus on wrappers and development of community software for these three products.

At the CCPi Working Group meeting there was a short debate on the results which resolved to focus effort from VolView to Avizo and follow the direction from the user base. This was followed up at a Developers’ Workshop help in Nottingham University (23 July 2014).

CCPi Working Group June 2014. Included discussion on survey results.
