Drawing wind barbs with D3js from a GeoTIFF

Open raw page in new tab

This example is an experiment to draw wind barbs using d3js and Canvas.

The data is from a sample WRF model, reprojected from Lambert Conformal to latlon so it can be drawn.

The wind speed is plotted under the barbs, using the d3-marching-squares library.
