Summary:Data visualization is an important factor in several areas of study, once understanding information is essential for any scientific advance. In meteorology field, for example, an efficient representation of the complex information approached is fundamental to produce any relevant results. According to this, there are several climatic visualization techniques that are used to represent varied phenomena. In order to investigate the most commonly used techniques in the field, this paper presents a systematic review that addresses representation methods and interaction devices within this context. Finally, this process has identified an approach gap within these techniques that motivated the accomplishment of an experience evaluation involving users that are familiar with such forms of visualization in climatic information.
