  • Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2013 15:19:16 -0700
Hi Duke,

> ... Makai has released a new 3D/4D
> visualization software tool that I thought would be relevant to you or
> your colleagues at Unidata. You may find the NetCDF import capabilities
> useful for displaying large metocean models / data. I encourage you to
> download the free trial version and let us know what you think.
> KAILUA, HAWAII: Makai Ocean Engineering, Inc. has released a free trial
> version of its geospatial visualization software, Makai Voyager. This
> release represents a leap forward in advanced volumetric data
> visualization and analysis.
> 
> Makai Voyager enables users to import, fuse, view, and analyze large
> earth, ocean, and atmosphere scientific data as it is collected or
> simulated in a global geo-referenced GIS platform. The key differentiator
> of Makai Voyager is its level-of-detail (LOD) technology that enables
> users to stream big data rapidly over a network or the web.
> 
> Features in Version 1.2:
> -Preprocessing LiDAR, GIS, & volumetric data from common formats into 
> streamable files;
> -Volume rendering for large 4D (3D + time) data, such as NetCDF;
> -Analysis tools & customizable graphs;
> -WMS and other streamable formats;

Thanks for the information!  I've drafted an entry for our web page on 
"Software for Manipulating or Displaying NetCDF Data" at

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/software.html#Voyager

Please let me know if you have any changes.  These short entries are intended 
to let users find and access more information about software that can be used 
with netCDF data, without evaluating the software or including too much of
what might be considered advertising.

You might also consider posting a short announcement about the new version of
your software on the address@hidden mailing list.  If you do, it
will be most effective if it's oriented to be informational rather than
commercial, such as in the web page referenced above.
