Visualization of limnological data as two-and three-dimensional computer generated animations / Efraim Halfon and Morley Howell.: En13-5/94-12E-PDF
"LAKEANIM is a software program to develop and display limnological data as computer generated animations. The purpose of the program is to visualize in a dynamical fashion a variety of data collected in lakes. Examples are originated from Hamilton Harbour, Lake Ontario. Data collected at different stations and different times are interpolated in space and in time. Lake topography and lake bathymetry files are used to relate data collected in the lake(s) with topographical features. A graphic user interface allows the user to choose two or three dimensional views, a viewpoint, fonts, colour palette, data and keyframes. A typical 1800 frame animation can be displayed in a minute at 30 frames per second. Rendering time is about 12 hours. Animations can be displayed on a monitor or transferred to video tape"--Abstract.
