Abstract: A method for efficiently visualizing parallel vector data rapidly renders high-quality complex vector graphics. The present invention provides a scanline algorithm for calculating and rendering on contour lines, which parallel-rasterizing on the contour lines. The algorithm firstly rasterizes the contour lines into segments corresponding to output image pixels. On each segment, color values are analytically calculated, or approximately obtained by a sampling algorithm. Contour rasterizing is efficiently completed in parallel. By analytical calculation or 32-bit sampling, high quality results are obtained. The present invention adapts parallel prefixes and algorithms in a scanline direction to obtain covering information for each pixel and generate filled areas. Finally, the contour line segments and the filled areas of the vector graphics are rendered in the output image.
