Web Viewer

中文版: 图形化界面显示

This page covers the product-style usage path of the local pycwr Web viewer. For the backend entrypoints and API routes, see Web / Viewer API.

Local Browser UI

The viewer is a lightweight local browser interface for exploring radar files, switching fields and sweeps, and generating quicklook PNG products.

Startup flow

1. Launch

python scripts/LaunchGUI.py

2. Open

http://127.0.0.1:8787/

3. Browse data

Choose a local directory, scan files, then pick a field and sweep.

4. Inspect results

Toggle map mode, continuous colorbars, and export the current PNG view.

What the viewer is good at

• Quickly checking whether a file reads cleanly

• Comparing dBZ with Zc or V with Vc

• Browsing HCL with the unified discrete color map

• Producing quick local previews before deeper Python-side processing

Security boundaries

• Localhost-only by default

• Token-protected backend routes

• File browsing restricted to allowed roots

• Intended as a local data browser, not a public web service
