This paper describes a Java-based capability that allows users in different locations to control and interact with an FX-Advanced display system. Examples of interactions include loading a graphic product on the local and remote screens, annotating the product, drawing symbols, and accessing remote databases. The distributed nature of the JAVA application allows some of the processing functions to be performed locally or on the remote host. Potential applications include collaboration between a forecaster and a user (such as an emergency manager), classroom interaction between teacher and students, and collaboration between forecasters in adjoining offices. Currently, the system relies on a common FX-Advanced database, but data from other sources can be merged. The software runs as a stand-alone system on any JAVA-capable platform and uses existing FX-Advanced software interfaces. This effort is an exploratory development activity.
