    3D Visualization of Atmospheric Data for Analytical Approaches
    (The Eurographics Association, 2013) Helbig, C.; Rink, K.; Bauer, H.-S.; Wulfmeyer, V.; Frank, M.; Kolditz, O.; O. Kolditz and K. Rink and G. Scheuermann
    In the future, climate change will strongly influence our environment and living conditions. Climate simulations that evaluate these changes produce huge data sets. The combination of various variables of the model with spatial data from different sources helps to identify correlations and to study key processes. We visualized results of the WRF model for two regions. For this purpose, we selected visualization methods based on specific research questions and combined these variables in a visual way. These visualizations can be displayed on a PC or in a virtual reality environment and are the basis for scientific communication for evaluating models and discussing the data of the research results.

    Environmental Visualization: Applications to Site Characterization, Remedial Programs, and Litigation Support
    (The Eurographics Association, 2013) Ling, Meng; Chen, Jian; O. Kolditz and K. Rink and G. Scheuermann
    This paper introduces the application of the visualization technology in the USA environmental consulting industry for site characterization, remedial programs, and litigation support. As a tool visualization allows environmental data that is three-dimensional and transient in nature to be accurately documented, efficiently represented, and ef- fectively communicated to both professionals and the general public. Maximized understanding through enhanced visual perception increases the chance of success in handling complex environmental problems. The key functions, accessibility, and general areas of application of the visualization technology are described and demonstrated with case studies.
