<p class="intro">
- To the best of my knowledge, all the weather related programs currently
- available for Linux are either very simple and provide little
- meteorological information or are huge, ancient, or proprietary beasts
- created for the National Weather Service. AWeather is made to fill the
- gap by providing lots of weather information while still using standard
- free software practices. As such, the research focus of this software
- is weather, not creative way to write software.
+ AWeather is a free/open source application which has been
+ designed to integrate and visualize high-quality meteorological
+ data using an interactive Virtual Globe interface suitable for
+ a wide range of users including weather enthusiasts, academics,
+ and professionals.
+
+ It is designed to provide more information than is typically
+ available from weather widgets and simple desktop applications.
+ At the same time, it strives to be simpler and easier to use
+ than existing meteorological software packages such as GEMPAK
+ and IDV.
+
+ Currently AWeather only displays data provided by the United
+ States National Weather Service.
