Visualization of the data underlying climate research
- jrd79 15y agoWe have put together a map/chart combo to visualize the data that underlies climate research. You can filter the stations based on several parameters, and get both a visualization as well as a computed rate-of-change. Tool: http://weatherspark.com/#!climatetrends;ws=29939;ctum=0;cth=500;ctmy=15;ctsy=1949;ctey=2010 http://weatherspark.com/#!climatetrends;ws=29939;ctum=0;cth=... Additional info: http://weatherspark.com/climatetrends http://weatherspark.com/climatetrends Feedback most welcome! (and yes, the data is quite hairy - as are the estimates) (and yes, the site is still using flash - it will be HTML5 one day, just not today)
- ggchappell 15y agoMy goodness. I didn't know about WeatherSpark at all. This is amazing. One question: when I'm viewing a chart, in the "Temperature" section, if I hover over one of the faint curves, I get a tooltip telling what it represents. But in "Precip. Type" I do not. Is this a bug? How do I tell what those faint curves mean?
- jacobn 15y agoAh, those are different faint lines ;) The forecast lines don't currently have tool tips, but the averages do. Will add. (I'm one of the devs on the site)
