Problems solved by technology

However, the existing cloud simulation methods have the following disadvantages: the clouds simulated by some methods only pay attention to the visually realistic effect, and the generated clouds have no physical meaning; while the methods of cloud simulation using real meteorological data generally have high modeling complexity and rendering problems. low efficiency

Embodiment Construction

[0031] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] figure 1 Be the flowchart of the present invention, concrete steps are as follows:

[0033] (1) Preprocess cloud-related WRF data and use particle systems for preliminary modeling

[0034] Firstly, obtain the cloud-related data parameters in WRF (meteorological data), mainly including: cloud, ice, rain, snow, graupel and other water vapor mass ratios, and use these mass ratios to calculate the extinction of each particle combined with the absorption characteristics of clouds to light coefficients, and compute the weighted sum of these extinction coefficients to obtain the extinction coefficients at the grid points. Then compare the value of the extinction coefficient with the threshold to determine whether the grid point contains clouds.

[0035] According to the characteristics of WRF data, the data is initially modeled using particle system. Each...

Abstract

The invention discloses a three-dimensional cloud simulation method based on adaptive far field grids. The method comprises steps of firstly, preprocessing WRF data related to cloud, and carrying outpreliminary modeling by use of a particle system; then, using a sliding method, through particle concentration, acquiring area-of-interest of a modeling space; adaptively generating an optimal far-field grid structure and applying the far-field grid structure into a simulation space; and finally, keeping particles on far-field grid lines, thereby achieving three-dimensional cloud chart drawing. According to the invention, based on the WRF weather data, modeling is performed; by combining the adaptive far-field grid structure, rendering efficiency of the cloud chart is improved; a three-dimensional cloud chart is drawn and a three-dimensional cloud scene in the weather data is vividly displayed; and the generated cloud chart has more physical meanings.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of computer graphics modeling and simulation and meteorology, and in particular relates to a three-dimensional cloud simulation method based on an adaptive far-field grid. Background technique [0002] Clouds are an important part of the natural landscape and an indispensable element in the sky. Due to the cloud's complex structure, changing dynamic characteristics and special lighting effects, cloud simulation has become a research hotspot and research difficulty in the fields of computer graphics and meteorology. [0003] With the continuous development and improvement of computer simulation technology, more and more cloud simulation methods have been proposed, and the generated cloud images are gradually becoming more authentic and realistic. In recent years, simulation methods based on real meteorological data have received more and more attention and become a new direction. The clouds drawn by these methods co...
