A New 3D Visualization Tool for Space Weather from the Community Coordinated Modeling Center
Abstract
The Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center provides free access to modern space research models to the space weather community. We execute space weather model simulations for end users through our Runs-On-Request system, and provide tools to explore and analyze space weather simulation data. We currently have both 2D and 3D visualizations available through our easy-to-use web interface, and soon, a new standalone 3D visualization tool that will allow an easier, more interactive experience. Using our Kameleon library (a data format standardization and access and interpolation library), and our extension utility libraries, we can visualize data interactively that otherwise would not be possible. We present our new Java3D based visualization tool and highlight the innovative features that aid in the interactive exploration of the data, including our modern data access method.
