This is an interesting approach to the situation and I would like to
add some more words to this. On the first glimpse I would prefer the
suggestion of Tobias. However, when it comes to 'easy plotting' we may
should think about what 'easy' means. I am actually working on a
detector viewer application (it is a prototype for a GUI program to
visualize data from Nexus files) using VTK. Indeed, when using VTK the
general approach is much easier since VTK is clever enough to arrange
the different module images to a large image by itself no matter how
they are oriented in space (even a 3D view would be possible in the
case of a curved detector).

Thus, the question is rather: what means easy plotting for us?

regards
  Eugen
