RSIG Video Demonstrations
There are two different user interfaces to RSIG. The first, RSIG2D, is a Java applet which runs inside your web browser. To use it, you need to have Java enabled in your browser.
The second and newest user interface is RSIG3D. It is a standalone application for Windows and Mac OS computers. It offers the same basic subsetting functionality as RSIG2D, while also providing a richly immersive and interactive visualization capability.
This page links to downloadable video files you can play locally that illustrate the 2D and 3D interfaces. The RSIG3D videos serve as basic tutorials to the application.
