NOAA's Weather and Climate Toolkit

Introduction

NOAA's Weather and Climate Toolkit is an application that provides simple visualization and data export of weather and climatological data archived at NCDC. The Toolkit also provides access to weather/climate web services provided from NCDC and other organizations.

The Viewer provides tools for displaying custom data overlays, Web Map Services (WMS), animations and basic filters. The export of images and movies is provided in multiple formats.

The Data Exporter allows for data export in both vector point/line/polygon and raster grid formats.

This toolkit is the successor to the Java NEXRAD Tools
