336 (The Baltimore Convention Center)
Hosts: (Joint between the 40th Conference on Environmental Information Processing Technologies; the 23rd Conference on Artificial Intelligence for Environmental Science; the 14th Symposium on Advances in Modeling and Analysis Using the Programming Languages of Open Science; and the 10th Symposium on High Performance Computing for Weather, Water, and Climate )

Weather imposes constraints on human activity. As a consequence, most decision-makers/planners seek awareness to mitigate or eliminate weather impacts. As datasets become larger and larger, new and improved tools to work with Big Data are critical. This session welcomes contributions from research fields such as scientific visualization, information visualization or visual analytics that are applicable to large data sets from climatology, meteorology or related disciplines. Presentations on using cloud computing for analyzing satellite and model data for weather, ocean, or climate relevant applications will also be welcomed.
