71 AWeather is a free/open source application which has been
72 designed to integrate and visualize high-quality meteorological
73 data using an interactive Virtual Globe interface suitable for
74 a wide range of users including weather enthusiasts, academics,
77 It is designed to provide more information than is typically
78 available from weather widgets and simple desktop applications.
79 At the same time, it strives to be simpler and easier to use
80 than existing meteorological software packages such as GEMPAK
83 Currently AWeather only displays data provided by the United
84 States National Weather Service.

450 <li>Uses the <a href="grits">Grits</a> "Virtual Globe" library<ul>
451 <li>Handles most of the graphics work using OpenGL for rendering</li>
452 <li>Provides some other generic functionality, such as data access</li>
453 <li>Also provides the plugins API used by AWeather</li>
455 <li>AWeather itself is a front-end for Grits along with a
456 bundle of weather related plugins</li>
459 <h2>Building AWeather</h2>
460 <p class="note">See the <a href="<%= WIKI_INSTALL %>">install</a>
461 wiki page for more details</p>
463 <li>AWeather has direct dependencies on Grits, RSL, among other things</li>
464 <li>Currently building and running AWeather requires the
465 exact same version of Grits to be installed<br />
466 (This may change in the near future as the software stabilizes)</li>
467 <li>The <a href="download">Downloads</a> page has information
468 on accessing the AWeather source code repositories</li>
472 <% void print_grits(void) { %>
474 Grits is a Virtual Globe library developed along side AWeather,
475 but desigend to be usable by other program as well.
477 It is differentiated from other Virtual Globes such as Google
478 Earth, NASA World Wind, and KDE Marble in that it is developed
479 primairily as a library that is used by other programs, such as
480 AWeather, rather than providing it's own user interface.

501 <h2>Radar Software Library</h2>
502 AWeather has at times needed a custom version of the
503 <a href="<%= RSL_WEB %>">TRMM Radar Software Library</a>
504 for accessing Level-II radar files. However, most of the changes have
505 since been incorporated into RSL Version 1.41, which can also be used
506 with AWeather. Some remaining changes exist though and are mostly
507 related to code organization and compiler warnings.
