Abstract:
Based on the EVGlobe threedimensional GIS platform, combined with highresolution remote sensing images and the Digital Elevation Model, an electronic sand table system is designed and developed for weather modification for Inner Mongolia. By the system, many functions are realized, such as the display of the layouts of operating equipment and observing stations of weather modification for Inner Mongolia, threedimensional visualized analysis and display of weather monitoring information like satellite cloud images, radar echoes, precipitation, threedimensional simulations of the programs and actual processes of weather modification. The system embodies the spaceground joint operating mode for weather modification and provides users with visual and intuitionistic geographic scenes of airplanes flying through the clouds and the effectiveness of catalyst seeding, and plays a positive role in enhancing capability of command and decisionmaking and operating for weather modification.
