Greg Stumpf Hazardous Weather Forecasts & Warnings Advanced Storm Visualization Techniques

2 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 Why advanced visualization for warning operations? The atmosphere is four- dimensional. Improves the rapid cognition of storm structure and evolution. Opportunities for discovery.

3 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 Collaboration and Partnership Development Integration Testing Training Operations Alliance with NWS: Embedded NWS HQ Personnel OS&T/MDL (Stumpf) OS&T/NPI (Cate, Hall) OCWWS (Ferree, Scharfenberg) Warning Technology Workshops Lists, BB Forums, Surveys

4 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 Background Storm Cell Identification and Tracking (SCIT) algorithm Hail Detection Algorithm (HDA) Mesocyclone Detection Algorithm (MDA) Tornado Detection Algorithm (TDA) Damaging Downburst Prediction and Detection Algorithm (DDPDA) Developers gain understanding of operational requirements NWS users exposed to latest R&D Feedback

5 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 Opportunities For Improvement Paradigm of “stacking” 2D images not meeting needs of users Warning decision making demands rapid assessment of the 4D structure and evolution of storms

6 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 WDSS to WDSSII Multi-Radar/Sensor Framework Legacy algorithm development limited by inferior 2D visualization tools WDSSII GUI (wg) developed

7 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 WDSSII GUI (wg) By Comparison: Earth Viewer/Google Earth

8 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 WDSSII GUI (wg) : Field testing at NWS forecast offices How can we leverage/adapt 4D visualization techniques used in R&D to improve NWS operational warning decision making?

9 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 Transition to NWS Operations (2008)

10 / 10 NSSL Laboratory Review February 17-19, 2009 Future R&D Strategies and Challenges Multi-parameter iso-surfaces and integrated dynamic cross- sections in the WDSSII GUI
