ArcGIS has supported multidimensional data for a long time. ArcGIS Pro visualizes this data in just a few steps.<\/P>
<\/P>
NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) is a file format for storing multidimensional scientific data (variables) such as temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed, and wind direction. All variables can be displayed in ArcGIS over one dimension (e.g., time) by creating a layer or table view from the netCDF file.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/P>Here, the wind speeds in the Caribbean region at the beginning of September 2017 are visualized. The red ball is a hurricane named "Irma." It first hits the small and large Antilles and then Florida. "Jose" followed "Irma" immediately but fortunately turned away before reaching the islands.<\/P><\/P>
