Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method executed by one or more processors, the method comprising: identifying a master model associated with a spatial region, the master model including a plurality of pixels, each pixel corresponding to a particular portion of the spatial region and including a length and a width for the particular portion of the spatial region, the master model associated with a first resolution; identifying a first data set including values of a physical property of at least a portion of the spatial region for a first time, the identified first data set identified in a native format and associated with a second resolution different than the first resolution; determining, based at least in part on the first data set, a first set of values of the physical property including a value for each pixel in the master model, wherein determining the first set of values of the physical property includes: storing the first set of values of the physical property as a value for each pixel in the master model, wherein storing the set of values of the physical property includes storing the first set of values as a first raster image; identifying a second data set including values of the physical property of the spatial region for a second time, the identified second data set identified in the native format and associated with the second resolution; determining, based at least in part on the second data set, a second set of values of the physical property including a value for each pixel in the master model; identifying a second raster image representing the second set of values; determining a difference between the first raster image and the second raster image to identify a set of deltas between the first raster image and the second raster image; storing the set of deltas; and presenting the first set of values and the second set of values according to the master model, wherein presenting the first and second set of values comprises presenting an animated representation illustrating a change in the values from the first time to the second time by initially presenting the first raster image accordingly to the master model and subsequently presenting the first raster image modified by the set of deltas.
