Visualizing atmospheric data on a mobile platform

Abstract: Weather data is important for almost everyone today. Thedaily weather report, home thermometers, and a lot of otherthings affect our every day life. In order to develop betterand more efficient equipment, tools and algorithms, thepeople working with this data need to be able to access it inan easily accessible and easy to read format. In thisresearch, methods of visualizing data on mobile platformsare evaluated based on what researchers in the field wants,since their respective fields might want to use very specificvisualizations. The implementability of these visualizationsare then evaluated, based on the implementations madethroughout this paper. The results show that the researchersknow what they want, and that what they want isimplementable on mobile platforms given some limitationscaused by performance.
