Abstract :
Considers how rain-gauge data, scattered in two dimensions, aid the study of El Nino-caused rainstorms in normally arid coastal Peru. Continuous realization techniques can extract qualitative information from the data. The techniques described were developed with IBM Visualization Data Explorer, a general-purpose software package for scientific data visualization and analysis. Data Explorer provides tools for both scattered and gridded data
