                <br>
                the first thing that comes to mind is the spreadsheet
                view which lets you look at numerical values of the
                data. You can use it in combination with selection to
                interactively, using the mouse, identify the subset of
                cells/point you are interested in, all without knowing
                exact coordinates.<br>

                      <div>when I extract a slice from a 3D data, how
                        can I look at the slice as a 2D plane/object?
                        That is to say, how can I do things like
                        probing, finding the variable value at different
                        points on the slice without giving its 3D
                        coordinates, because its not convenient to find
                        out the exact 3D coordinates of points on the
                        slice.</div>
