NAME

visage_data_group - an object to group data sets

DESCRIPTION

Visage_data_group is a convenience class that serves to group data_sets. Visage_data_group is usually instantiated by a reader object (e.g., plot3d_reader, cdf_reader) and maintains a list of its data sets.

Visage_data_group at one time also served as a modeller. This behavior is obsolete and will eventually be eliminated.
