CityScope uses augmented reality (AR) to change our interaction with weather data. The main goal is to develop real-time 3D weather visualizations, with Taiwan as the model. It displays live weather data from the Central Weather Bureau (CWB), projected onto a physical representation of Taiwan's landscape. A pivotal advancement in our project is the integration of AprilTag with plane detection technology. This innovative combination significantly enhances the precision of the virtual visualizations within the physical world. By accurately aligning AR elements with real-world environments, CityScope achieves a seamless and realistic amalgamation of weather data and the physical terrain of Taiwan. This breakthrough in AR technology not only enhances the accuracy of weather visualizations but also enriches user experience, offering an immersive and interactive way to understand and engage with meteorological information. CityScope stands as a testament to the potential of AR in transforming data visualization and public engagement in meteorology.
