Make 3D globes out of your model results!

If you have successfully downloaded the visualisation software, and have Adobe Photoshop on your PC, you can download this software here.

Flexify turns a equi-rectangular jpeg into an icosahedral net, which you can print off, fold and glue to make a 3D souvenir of your modelled world.

Instructions for use:

• Use the advanced visualisation software (SVI) to create an image of a surface field (e.g. temperature).
• Save the image as a jpg
• Unzip icosahedron-model.zip and double click on Icosahedron Model.8bf. This will launch Photoshop.
• Open the jpg in Photoshop (from C:/ Program Files/ Climate Prediction/ vis)
• Select 'flaming pear' from the filter menu.
