Abstract :
The International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model has been in use as a standard model of the ionosphere. We developed a system of 3-D visualization of the electron density calculated by the IRI model. This should help us to understand the global condition of the ionosphere. It will be useful not only for research but also for education. We used two visualization methods: surface and volume rendering. Volume rendering can express more detailed structures than surface rendering.
