We present a flexible illustrative line style model for the visualization of streamline data. Our model partitions vieworiented line strips into parallel bands whose basic visual properties can be controlled independently. We thus extend previous line stylization techniques specifically for visualization purposes by allowing the parametrization of these bands based on the local line data attributes. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our model by applying it to 3D flow field datasets.
