Climate Wikience 2.1 Now Available!

Climate Wikience provides 3D interactive visualizations for over 700 global climate datasets for up to 169 years. Those include 3D isolines for pressure, temperature, humidity, 3D surfaces for water vapor, cloud properties, and 3D cyclone tracks. A user is not required to download or store any data files. The data are retrieved in real time over Internet from the remote datacenter as necessary. All time points within claimed periods are always available for immediate visualization by a mouse click. This removes the feeling of a “heavy data” in spite of their volumes and complex formats making for the first time their exploration as light and simple as a slideshow view. Climate Wikience significantly broadens the research audience of vast climatic datasets and offers unprecedented opportunities to better understand and, hence, prepare and adapt to storm events, heat waves, floods, severe weather conditions and future climate.
