New Client Reply: netCDF Java - Bufr.jar and executing netcdf java program Dear Robb, I have run my NOAA bufr data through the bufr decoder provided by Unidata and the results look good. I have one question regarding the data, does the current code provide a way to iterate through blocks of lat/long data.
James, one can do it for non-compressdata because the lat/lon are in the index file in fields 5-6. for every observation. in the compressdata it's not possible because only the first lat/lon for the group of data. look at the doc IndexFormat.txt in the root distribution directory. run the following index command on a dataset: % java -Xmx256m ucar/bufr/BufrIndexer <input bufr file> type = BUFR bufr_edition = 3 location = /home/rkambic/code/bufr/data/IUA_CWAO_20060202_12.bufr length = 56282 created = 2006-05-23T14:41:00Z index_version = 1.1 header = IUAA01 CWAO 021159 reference_time = 2006-02-02T11:54:00Z center_id = 53 Montreal (RSMC) sub_center_id = 0 WMO Secretariat category = 4 Single level upper-air data (other than satellite) table = B3M-000-009 compressdata = false -------------------------------------------------------------------- CNJDA116 2006-02-02T11:54:00Z 1 43.73667 -79.515 730 58 86 0 0 CNJDA116 2006-02-02T11:55:00Z 1 43.71 -79.55334 510 58 131 5 4 CNJDA116 2006-02-02T11:56:00Z 1 43.68667 -79.58667 290 58 175 2 0 ... ...
