Purpose:
This task demonstrates how to interact with the SCAN Storm Cells table, and it requires deep convection and radar algorithm products (best done on WES-2 Bridge)Tasks:
Assumptions:
- The SCAN Storm Cells table has been loaded (see previous Task)
- In the CELL Table, left-click on an attribute containing an algorithm attribute (hSize) with a black background.
- The cells will now be sorted by the numerical value in the column you just selected, and the background behind the attribute title will become purple.
- In the CELL Table, left-click the same attribute that now contains a purple background.
- Selecting the attribute title multiple times will toggle the sorting by highest and lowest value.
- In the CELL Table, left-click on a cell id (e.g. M3) in the ident column.
- The row will highlight blue, and the CAVE editor will zoom in on the cell icon display containing a hexagon.
- In the CELL Table, right-click on the same cell id.
- A trend set of algorithm detections for this cell will display in a CELL Trend Graph window. If the values are particularly high, the y-axis will expand and highlight red.
- The trend sets can be configurable through the Configurations Trend Sets menu in the CELL Table.
- In the CELL Trend Graph, left-click on the Close button.
- The Cell Trend Graph window should close.
- In the CELL Table, left-click on a numerical value in the dbzHt column (e.g. 15.50) for one of the storm cells.
- The Cell Trend Graph for the dbzHt (height of maximum reflectivity) for that algorithm “ident” should display.
- For the height values given SCAN shades the beam height as white swaths, so you can see the gaps between beam centerlines, and the impact it can have on the height detection.
- Task Complete!
