69 AWeather is a free/open source application which has been
70 designed to integrate and visualize high-quality meteorological
71 data using an interactive Virtual Globe interface suitable for
72 a wide range of users including weather enthusiasts, academics,
75 It is designed to provide more information than is typically
76 available from weather widgets and simple desktop applications.
77 At the same time, it strives to be simpler and easier to use
78 than existing meteorological software packages such as GEMPAK

314 <li>Uses the <a href="grits">Grits</a> "Virtual Globe" library<ul>
315 <li>Handles most of the graphics work using OpenGL for rendering</li>
316 <li>Provides some other generic functionality, such as data access</li>
317 <li>Also provides the plugins API used by AWeather</li>
319 <li>AWeather itself is a front-end for Grits along with a
320 bundle of weather related plugins</li>
323 <h2>Building AWeather</h2>
324 <p class="note">See the <a href="<%= WIKI_INSTALL %>">install</a>
325 wiki page for more details</p>
327 <li>AWeather has direct dependencies on Grits, RSL, among other things</li>
328 <li>Currently building and running AWeather requires the
329 exact same version of Grits to be installed<br />
330 (This may change in the near future as the software stabilizes)</li>
334 <% void print_grits(void) { %>
336 Grits is a Virtual Globe library developed along side AWeather,
337 but desigend to be usable by other program as well.
339 It is differentiated from other Virtual Globes such as Google
340 Earth, NASA World Wind, and KDE Marble in that it is developed
341 primairily as a library that is used by other programs, such as
342 AWeather, rather than providing it's own user interface.

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