A multi-key data organization is developed for handling a continuous stream of large scale, time-dependent, 3D weather data in a global environment. The structure supports inserting the data in real-time as they arrive or retrieving weather events at desired times and locations from archived weather histories. In either case data are organized for interactive visualization and visual query.
