Did you ever just want to get a quick snapshot of the
tropical situation without having to get into the full capabilities of the
HURRTRAK system? A new feature of the
HURRTRAK system called QuickPlot does just that. It allows the user to
find out exactly what is going on... FAST. From there, the user can
opt to use the full capabilities of the entire HURRTRAK system with the simple
click of the mouse.
QuickPlot is typically selected from the desktop however it
can also be initiated from within the main HURRTRAK program. It quickly
displays a single tracking chart image showing all of the "current" storms.
An example is shown below along with a list of the available plotting options.
Notice that the key functions of Email sending, printing and saving of images
is available. This allows you to easily share the QuickPlot information.
If
the user "clicks" on a storm, the advisory text for the storm will appear in a
separate popup.
The user
may also select to see the latest Tropical Weather Outlook
All
detail maps are available and easily selectable
Finally, this function is also in our Global Tracking systems.
QuickPlot will save the average user a significant amount of time over the
course of a tropical season!
