Abstract
Volumetric Visualization: An Effective Use of GIS Technology in the Field of Oceanography
Highlights
Thirty years ago, the amount of data collected from a series of deep ocean casts during a hydrographic cruise would have fit into a thin folder
The expansion of standard two-dimensional gridding algorithms to full three-dimensional space enables information to be shared along the finite number of spatial planes within a specific volume, thereby producing a more accurate representation of the spatial variation of the property being investigated
Since no single view can reveal the spatial relationships within the volume, techniques must exist to interactively manipulate the model
Summary
The amount of data collected from a series of deep ocean casts during a hydrographic cruise would have fit into a thin folder. These data sets represent complex three- and four-dimensional information obtained from computer models, advanced data gathering techniques and the synthesis of historical data bases.
