There are a number of visualisation tools within the MIKE Zero environment. Some are common for all models and some are focused on visualising data from certain models. For the following tools some examples are shown in Figure 4.18 - Figure 4.24:
· Plot Composer
Creates various types of plots based on time series data, line series data and 2D/3D data.
· Data Viewer
Display data from MIKE Zero flexible mesh models.
· Result Viewer
Display model results from a various range of DHI models, including MIKE 11.
· MIKE Animator Plus (Add-on module)
Display data and create animations using a 3D view.
· MIKE to Google Earth (tool)
Display and animate dfs2 and dfsu data files in Google Earth
· Graphical Overview for Flexible mesh models
Displays important model components in one interactive map viewer
Common for all visualisation tools are the graphical display settings described below.

Some models and tools are capable of producing output in formats that are suitable for presentation in other software than the DHI presentation tools. E.g. the Mike2Shp tool in MIKE Zero toolbox generates ArcView Shape files from dfs data files. And the Particle Tracking module can output particle track information in KML format such that it is readily imported and displayed in Google Earth, see Figure 4.24 below.
