Application of 3D simulation technology of AWX format infrared satellite cloud image based on OpenGL
According to the characteristics of AWX format infrared satellite image and 3D simulation principle, a method obtaining the color and transparency of clouds was proposed by building DEM model and applying OpenGL technology, which can truly present the clouds' characteristics.3D simulation of AWX format infrared satellite image could be displayed, and the specific method and work flow were given.The verification has demonstrated that this method could show the 3D simulation of AWX format infrared satellite image rapidly,reflect the space distribution features of cloud mass, and enhance the visual effect of infrared cloud picture.
