Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide three dimensional volume rendering of volume data for use when operating mobile structures. A three dimensional volume rendering system includes a logic device configured to communicate with a user interface and receive volume data from a volume data source. The logic device is configured to render a three dimensional representation of the volume data, generate, within the 3D representation, a two dimensional grid having several vertices, adjust vertical coordinates of the several vertices based on the volume data, and render the adjusted 2D grid as a 3D surface.
