Previous work on multilevel techniques for compression and reduction of scientific data is extended to the case of data given on unstructured meshes in two and three dimensions. The centerpiece of the work is a decomposition algorithm which is shown to be optimal, in terms of both storage and operational complexity, applicable to unstructured grids in both two and three dimensions, and which implicitly gives a Riesz basis that can be exploited to reduce the data while maintaining rigorous bounds on the loss incurred. The flexibility of the approach is illustrated by applications to potential flow around an airfoil and the effect of compression on quantities of interest relevant to airfoil design; compression of computational simulation of a nonlinear reaction-diffusion system with special attention given to the problem of time series reduction; and, data from a simulation of magnetically confined plasma in a fusion reactor reduced so as to preserve the electric field computed from the data.
