Connectome Workbench

Connectome Workbench is an open source, freely available visualization and discovery tool used to map neuroimaging data, especially data generated by the Human Connectome Project.

Usage♯

Connectome Workbench version 1.5.0 is available on Picotte. You can load it using the modulefile:

You can then using the wb_command command, in which most of the functionality is available:

$ wb_command

                                  info - VERY LONG

To get the help information of a processing subcommand, run it without any
   additional arguments.

If the first argument is not recognized, all processing commands that start
   with the argument are displayed.

The wb_view command will not work on Picotte because it requires a graphical interface.

Documentation♯

The wb_command documentation is available online.
