    Abstract
    We have developed a system enabling the National German Meteorological Office to generate pseudo-satellite images and video sequences based on their weather forecasting simulation data. With our system meteorologists can visualize the past and the current weather situation, evaluate their simulation results, and produce animated weather forecast videos broadcasted by several television stations. Realistic images are generated by interpolating the extremely coarse weather simulation data grid and enhancing the result using fractal clouds. It also enables the meteorologists to interactively change the forecast data in order to compensate the lack of accuracy or the known errors in their simulation models. Our system TRITON enables the visualization of complex weather simulations in a more natural way by presenting an intuitively understandable forecast.
