The DISC has created an application for animating hurricane path, their varying levels of intensity and atmospheric information occurring at the time of the event. This is a beta release for this feature, and in the weeks and months to come additional features and animation options will be added to enhance the application. We believe this application offers a valuable visualization experience in spite of its current limitations and chose to make it available in its beta form.
This application requires Flashplayer version 8 or 9. The current version of this free software is available at the Adobe Flash Player Download Center. At this time the most current version of Flashplayer for linux is version 7 and the Flash animations will not work in this version. Version 9 for linux is expected in early 2007.
