Systems and methods for VIIRS image processing. The method can include receiving image data of immediately adjacent VIIRS image scans including a first image scan and a second image scan. The first image scan and the second image scan provide a partially overlapping view of a geographic area. The method can further involve resampling columns of pixels of the first image scan and the second image scan. The resampling can include selecting, in the first image scan and the second image scan, a subset of pixel values in each column that correspond to a specified geographic distance. The method can further involve upsampling the selected pixels to an equal number of pixels in each column resulting in upsampled pixel values and interpolating the upsampled pixel values to produce modified first and second image scans.

Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, devices, and machine-readable media for 3D radar weather data rendering techniques. A computer-implemented method for 3D radar weather data rendering includes retrieving weather data from a weather radar. Gridded data is generated based on the weather data. The gridded data includes a uniform grid of cubes, where each of the cubes is associated with at least one weather parameter value of a plurality of weather parameter values corresponding to the weather data. A triangular mesh for a data grouping within the gridded data is extracted. An object file including vertices and faces associated with the triangular mesh is generated. The object file is communicated to a three-dimensional (3D) visualization system to present a 3D rendering of the object file.
