Met.3D is an open-source visualisation tool for interactive, three-dimensional visualisation of numerical ensemble weather predictions and similar gridded atmospheric datasets. The tool is implemented in C++ and OpenGL 4 and runs on standard commodity hardware. Its only “special” requirement is an OpenGL 4.3 capable graphics card.
