Abstract: Although the automatic weather station data has high precision and strong spacetime resolution, but it’s expression is simple in current forecast application and the traditional meteorological data processing method can’t express the spatial character of automatic meteorological station data effectively and real-time intuitively, the availability of automatic weather station data is restrictive. In order to play the space-time advantage of the automatic weather station data, using the powerful capabilities of GIS in spatial data management and analysis can realize the real-time display of automatic weather station and GIS visualization expression of meteorological elements of query results and so on. It provides a stable, fast and convenient data platform and improves the efficiency of the meteorological operations. The GIS system has been applied in Jiading meteorological administration in Shanghai, significantly enhanced the level of use of meteorological data.
