Received Nov 1, 2017 Revised Jan 7, 2018 Accepted Jan 25, 2018 Weather forecasting is a significant function in meteorology and has been one of the most systematically challenging troubles around the world.This scheme deals with the structure of a weather display method using small cost components so that any electronics hobbyist can construct it. As a replacement for using sensors to collect t...

Weather forecasts are nearly always portrayed from either a satellite view perspective, a numerical or symbol based representation. None of these methods actually portray weather visually from the point of view of the observer, that is, they do not represent our experience of weather. This problem presents a challenge to displaying weather using real-time 3D computer graphics. 3D Weather is a p...

InSAR signal delays due to the varying atmospheric refractivity are a potential data source to improve weather models [1]. Especially with the launch of the new Sentinel-1 satellites, which increases data coverage, latency and accessibility, it may become possible to operationalize the assimilation of differential integrated refractivity (DIR) values in numerical weather models. Although studie...

The primary purpose of this study was to examine the association of outdoor physical activity (PA) with weather-related factors (temperature, humidity, heat index, and precipitation) when data was measured onsite (Knoxville Third-Creek Greenway). Secondary to this research question, this study explored whether the source of weather­ related data (site-specific vs. public domain) influenced the ...

A multi-key data organization is developed for handling a continuous stream of large scale, time-dependent, 3D weather data in a global environment. The structure supports inserting the data in real-time as they arrive or retrieving weather events at desired times and locations from archived weather histories. In either case data are organized for interactive visualization and visual query.

We evaluated the ability of the WGEN model to generate long term weather series in situations where the actual historic weather data record is only 3–10 years long. The series generated were used to simulate yield of irrigated and rainfed chickpea. To do this, four 100-year samples of weather data were generated for Tabriz, Iran. The WGEN parameters used to generate data were obtained from dail...

This paper presents the development of a prototype weather station to measure the following weather data: air temperature, relative humidity, dew point, wind speed, and rainfall. The weather station, which has been designed for remote operation, performs automatic or unmanned measurements of weather data and transmits it wirelessly to a PC for logging and display by means of a graphical user in...

Static geosensor networks are comprised of stations with sensor devices providing data relevant for monitoring environmental phenomena in their geographic perimeter. Although early warning systems for disaster management rely on data retrieved from these networks, some limitations exist, largely in terms of insufficient coverage and low density. Crowdsourcing user-generated data is emerging as ...
