OceanGIS: 3D GIS for Ocean Data | ||
OceanGIS is meant to be a Proof-of-Concept only! Please don't expect too much! OceanGIS is an oceanography-specific 3D data viewer based on GIS technology (using GeoTools), and 3D-support using the Visualization Toolkit (VTK). Take a look at a screensnap or two, and then download the application and sample data as described below. You can view slides from a presentation at the 2005 American Meteorological Society meeting here or download the paper here (pdf). Have fun,
The PMEL Viz folks
