Abstract

A method, system, and computer-readable medium for providing a visualization of a model. The method includes receiving a grid of the model including cells representing space, time, or both in the model. The method also includes grouping at least some of the cells into first-level gridlets. The method also includes grouping at least some of the first-level gridlets into second-level gridlets. The method further includes determining a first upper limit of elements to send for display, based on a display system capability, and determining that the number of first-level gridlets exceeds the first upper limit, and that the number of second-level gridlets is less than or equal to the first upper limit. In response, the method includes selecting at least some of the second-level gridlets for display and omitting from display at least some of the cells and at least some of the first-level gridlets.
