Abstract

For visualization of distributed hydrological phenomena, a multidimensional visualization tool such as VisAD embeds sophisticated visualization techniques in hydrological models. Heterogeneous hydrological properties can be visualized draped on top of a digital elevation model (DEM), in order to model parametrization or results. This article discusses how the VisAD library was applied to hydrology related information in the headwater catchments of the Schmücker Graben and the Steinbach utilizing DEMViewer.
