Scientists, especially Meteorologists, try to understand the factors that lead to the development of thunderstorms. Models and visualizations play a key role in enhancing our ability to understand and predict such weather phenomena.
Complexity of the thunderstorm data
obtained from a numerical model requires advanced mapping techniques.
AVS Express provides high-end visualization modules that can create an
isosurface -- a three-dimensional surface representing a constant
value. To explore the shape of a thunderstorm, scientists might
plot a surface of constant temperature, constant pressure, or constant
humidity.
