What are some sample visualized products?
Each of the three images below show aspects of a thunderstorm predicted by Deep Thunder. They were produced by a suite of interactive visualization tools that are integrated with the modeling portion of Deep Thunder. This suite also generates the visualizations that automatically populate the New York City forecast Web site. The first image (above) shows a terrain map, colored by a forecast of total precipitation, where darker shades of blue indicate heavier accumulations. The map is marked with the location of major cities or airports as well as river, coastline, and county boundaries. In addition, colored lines indicate predicted winds, with the lighter color indicating faster winds. The lines flow in the direction of the predicted winds as indicated by little arrows. Above the terrain is a forecast of clouds, for which the typical anvil-shaped structure of a thunderstorm cell is visible. Within the clouds are cyan surfaces that correspond to rain shafts, where the precipitation is f
