The Geosciences Probe of Discovery (GEOpod) is an intuitive, interactive application that allows users to navigate through and explore an immersive 3-D environment created from authentic geoscience data. GEOpod is built on top of Unidata's Integrated Data Viewer (IDV), leveraging its sophisticated features to import and display geoscience data in a teaching environment.
UPDATE: The GEOpod short course will not be held at the Austin AMS meering. The organizers hope to present the course in a different venue in the near future.
GEOpod was created by professors and students from the departments of Computer Science and Earth Sciences at Millersville University. They, along with Unidata Program Center IDV developer Yuan Ho, will be teaching a Short Course — Interactive Immersion Learning: Flying through data onboard the GEOpod — at the upcoming American Meteorological Society annual meeting in Austin, Texas.
