Dan, I used a tutorial from Geoserver itself that talked about Hurricane tracks. The idea was to convert hurricane best track data from shape files (.shp) to Postgis. I think it was the best tutorial I have seen. Note, though, weather data is no different than any other data. The one thing that is perhaps unique in weather data is the use of wind barbs (and stream lines).
Wind barbs are directional (opposite direction of a vector) and contain speed information using "wind barbs". Would be interesting if anyone has used this symbol in GIS. http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/Tropical+Storm+Tracking+with+PostGIS-GeoServer-GoogleEarth aloha -----Original Message----- From: Dan MacLeod [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 8:02 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Geoserver-users] Displaying weather data with GeoServer question I should have added, I'm thinking mainly about radar data, i.e. storms, hurricanes.
