Hello everyone,
I’m currently working on a project involving 3D typhoon visualization and came across a recent journal article that explores methods for achieving this:
Frontiers in Marine Science – 3D Typhoon Visualization.
The paper presents interesting approaches to modeling and visualizing typhoons in three dimensions, including aspects such as wind fields, pressure distribution, and dynamic simulation. I would like to take inspiration from this research and see if something similar can be implemented using CesiumJS.
Specifically, I am curious about the following:
- Is Cesium capable of rendering volumetric or 3D atmospheric data (e.g., cloud structures, wind fields, pressure layers) in a way similar to what is described in the article?
- What would be the best practices or available libraries/plugins to integrate scientific datasets (such as NetCDF, GRIB, or other meteorological formats) into Cesium for visualization?
Are there examples or workflows of using Cesium for large-scale 3D geophysical/atmospheric simulations that could guide this process?
My main goal is to create an interactive 3D typhoon visualization where users can explore storm structures and dynamics on a globe, rather than just viewing 2D projections.
Any suggestions, experiences, or resources would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
