Abstract in different language:	In this paper a new system for visualization of combines scalar and vector fields is presented. The methods implemented in this system are based on the use of combination AVOs (abstract visualization objects) consisting of arrows, spheres, isosurfaces, streamlines and cylinders. These AVOs improve the understanding of correlations between the spatial distributions of one vector and up to three scalar quantities, and enable simple forms of topological filtering. Furthermore, new classification methods for visualization methods and AVOs are introduced, which, among others, describe the dimensionality of the data that a single AVO displays (DD - displayed dimensions). An extended model of the visualization process reveals important details of the microstructures of visualization, its transformational phases and objects.
