For last couple of months I have familiarized myself with visad basics
and now I need to decide how to implement visad to visualize different
meteorological data on a web site. I have a data server which will be
the data source for all visad applications. The same server also has
visad installed so it could be the visad server too.
First, I thought buffered images generated using display.getImage()
(DisplayImplJ2D display) could do the work but this is just a snapshot.
Visad could do much more than that so I decided not the go on this path.
The SocketSlaveDisplay server seems to be the way to go so I played with
Test68 in examples directory which allows interactive visualization. My
problem with this is that Test68 needs to be run interactively. I have
to walk to the sever room and run test68 on the local display and come
back to my desk and use the browser to see the display. Or, I will have
to run X-win32 like utility to run Test68. Obviously this is not
efficient way to do this so at this point I am open to any suggestions
you might have. Can I use java servlets to create a visad interface?
thanks in advance
