Simple Analysis and Display of Variability in MM5 Outputs Mark Kruger Applied Physics Laboratory 21 May 2002
Past Experiences at APL Observations from numerous GUI’s developed at the APL: • Simple analysis tools work. • 2D displays give better analytical results, 3D displays generate better mental model results. • End user included in the development process yields better software.
Current Work • Focus on TAF tools for NAS Whidbey Is. • Well defined user group, close at hand • “Simple” problems • Getting data • MM5 output as well as MM5 ensemble • Analyzing model data specific for NAS Whidbey Is.
The Future • Closer work with the TAF producers • Spend some time with the AG’s, showing them displays and getting direct feedback • Multidimensional views • VisAD or XIS as a toolkit • More advanced analysis
