Data is written out in binary format in real time simulations, with separate files for each fundamental variable. |
Data is filtered/manipulated in AVS networks. |
To display clouds, we take an isosurface of this filtered data. |
To display a 2D surface of the precipitation levels, we take the ground level slice of the 3D filtered data (different data than the cloud data). |
We perform these manipulations for every "m" time iterations of the ARPS code. Currently we use just one data set from the end of the prediction. |
