3D-GIS Cloud Volume Reconstruction Based on Radar Data
There are presently about 150 radar sets in operation in the CINRAD network,but radar detection data are still displayed mostly on conventional 2D images in operational application.The volumetric cloud data are reconstructed based on the single-radar base data and the 3D Geographic Information System (3D-GIS).The geographical spatial processing technology of radar base data and 3D cloud volume visualization technology such as volume rendering for isosurface based on 3D grid data are discussed.It provides a new perspective to understand the cloud volume structure for radar base data analysis.
