This project is funded by NASA under Goddard's Digital Library Technology Project . This module is developed in cooperation with Houston's Citizens' Environmental Coalition , a non-profit organization dedicated to improving communication about environmental issues.
Visitors can choose a regional map to show regional temperatures, rainfall, humidity, wind, etc.
For any station, you can graph the changes over time of any of the parameters - for example, the anticorrelation between temperature and relative humidity is very striking in Houston. Another weather forecast is created using the barometric pressure. Real-time weather data from many locations in the AWS system are accessible via AWS online . Schools with internet access can be part of AWS online . The web versions are very abbreviated, just to give our web visitors a taste of what we are showing at the museum.
