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

419 <li>Uses the <a href="grits">Grits</a> "Virtual Globe" library<ul>
420 <li>Handles most of the graphics work using OpenGL for rendering</li>
421 <li>Provides some other generic functionality, such as data access</li>
422 <li>Also provides the plugins API used by AWeather</li>
424 <li>AWeather itself is a front-end for Grits along with a
425 bundle of weather related plugins</li>
428 <h2>Building AWeather</h2>
429 <p class="note">See the <a href="<%= WIKI_INSTALL %>">install</a>
430 wiki page for more details</p>
432 <li>AWeather has direct dependencies on Grits, RSL, among other things</li>
433 <li>Currently building and running AWeather requires the
434 exact same version of Grits to be installed<br />
435 (This may change in the near future as the software stabilizes)</li>
436 <li>The <a href="download">Downloads</a> page has information
437 on accessing the AWeather source code repositories</li>
441 <% void print_grits(void) { %>
443 Grits is a Virtual Globe library developed along side AWeather,
444 but desigend to be usable by other program as well.
446 It is differentiated from other Virtual Globes such as Google
447 Earth, NASA World Wind, and KDE Marble in that it is developed
448 primairily as a library that is used by other programs, such as
449 AWeather, rather than providing it's own user interface.

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