Claim 19:
20. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing computer useable program code which, when executed by a processor, performs a computer-implemented method of presenting weather data on a graphical user interface (GUI), the computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving the weather data, wherein the weather data represents a plurality of weather events, and wherein at least one of the plurality of weather events is present in at least one of a plurality of altitude zones for a physical area centered on a reference point;
assigning a corresponding intensity rank to each of the plurality of weather events;
dividing each of the plurality of altitude zones into a corresponding grid defined for the physical area, each corresponding grid comprising corresponding sectors defined by corresponding lines and vertices;
assigning, to each of the corresponding sectors in the plurality of altitude zones, a corresponding highest intensity ranking weather event extant in the corresponding sectors;
receiving a selection of a selected altitude zone from among the plurality of altitude zones;
generating a rendered image by rendering the corresponding grid for the selected altitude zone; and
displaying the rendered image on the GUI.
