Abstract
Naturally, fishery highly depends on the environment in the ocean. To increase fishing hauls, the analysis of the ocean is of great significance. In this paper, we proposed some visualization tools which help to filter and analyze the ocean data such as temperatures and currents velocities. Sea currents are visualized as streamlines and vortices can be detected and extracted. We constructed a system environment in which we can analyze the relationship between the vortices and the distribution of temperatures, which is visualized by volume rendering.
