Visualization of Wind Data on Google Earth for the Three-dimensional Wind Field (3DWF) Model.

摘要

This report documents the algorithms of visualization of vertical and horizontal cross-sections of wind field, and the construction of wind direction's 3D flag for wind direction profile display. In addition, this report describes user-friendly Google Earth graphical user interface (GUI) menus designed to offer the user flexibility, and simple options in order to generate 3D displays in Google Earth and to save them in a Keyhole Markup Language (KML) file.
