A 3D visualization created with Met.3D appears on the front cover of the May 2018 issue of the "Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society". The image shows data from the article "Flow-Dependent Reliability: A Path to More Skillful Ensemble Forecasts" by Mark Rodwell et al. Thank you to Mark for this cooperation and to our student Florian Märkl for help with creating the image. For creation of the image, we used direct volume rendering functionality implemented by Florian in his Bachelor's thesis.
We are proud to announce the release of version 1.13. The version features a completely revised trajectory analysis module, improved support for open data by DWD and ECMWF, new shadows computation, and many bugfixes and small improvements.
Sign up for our new Met.3D newsletter email list. We‘ll keep you informed about updates, bugfixes, new functionality, tutorials, and so on.
Version 1.12 is available, finally adding the Kern et al. (2018) jetcore detection actor to the main Met.3D version, adding a new weather radar actor that visualizes radar data from the German Weather Service, and a multitude of further improvements.
Version 1.11 is available, adding streambarbs visualization on horizontal section, improvements to the GRIB reader, an actor to display geometry data, and a multitude of further improvements.
I had the honour yesterday to present Met.3D to the public in the "alle wetter!" show on "Hessischer Rundfunk".
The interview is available here (around 7:10 min; the video is available until 24 October 2025).
Thank you so much to the "alle wetter!" team!
