기상청 웹 기반 기상자료 3차원 가시화 시스템 고도화 버전

가이아쓰리디가 개발한 기상청 웹 기반 기상자료 3차원 가시화 시스템이 지난 5월에 현업화되었다고 소개해 드렸는데요. 기상청 예보관님들의 많은 지지와 관심 속에 올해 그 성능과 기능을 대폭 개선 중입니다. 아래는 지난 7월말 태풍 꼬마이가 중국 내륙으로 진입하던 시점에 기상청에서 생산한 상세실황분석체계(KAS, Korea Analysis System) 모델자료를 CesiumJS로 가시화한 동영상입니다. 

19년 전이 생각납니다. 2006년 기상청분들이랑 함께 미국 워싱턴DC 근처에 있던 미국 국립해양대기청(NOAA) 기상개발연구소(MDL)를 방문했습니다. MDL에서는 다양한 기상모델 자료를 고성능 그래픽 워크스테이션으로 가시화해 보여주더군요. 부럽기도 했지만 기상청이나 저희는 웹이 대세라고 믿었고, 이제 기상청 동네예보편집기 뿐만 아니라 기상자료 가시화 시스템까지 모두 웹으로 구현하였습니다. MDL 방문 19년이 지나 이제 대한민국 기상청은 동네예보 편집과 대용량 기상모델 자료 가시화까지  모두 웹 브라우저만으로 처리합니다. 이런 혁신에 가이아쓰리디가 기여해 기쁠 따름입니다.

I'm thrilled to share an update on the 3D weather data visualization system developed by Gaia3D, Inc., which officially went into operational use at the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) this past May.

Thanks to the strong support and interest from KMA forecasters, we are now significantly enhancing its performance and features. Below is a video showing KMA’s Korea Analysis System (KAS) model data visualized in #CesiumJS at the end of July, when Typhoon 'Cỏ may' was entering inland China.

This takes me back 19 years. In 2006, I visited NOAA’s Meteorological Development Laboratory (MDL) near Washington D.C. with KMA colleagues. At MDL, they visualized various weather model data on high-erformance graphics workstations. While impressive, we believed that the web would be the future. Today, not only KMA’s digital forecast system editor but also their large-scale weather data visualization system are entirely web-based.

I am truly proud that Gaia3D could contribute to this innovative journey. Huge thanks to everyone involved!
