Hi. Doesn't NMAP and its restore files provide the same, and if not, more
functionality than GARP and its macros (and so too with NSHARP vs GARP)?
Don't get me wrong, I used to use GARP heavily, so perhaps I am missing more
"recent" improvements that makes it an equivalent to NMAP2.
But it seemed to me that somewhere in the early 2000's, NMAP2 began to far
exceed GARP in terms of display capabilities and functionality.

Kevin:
I use GARP extenstively in my courses here at U-MI, as well. GEMPAK
itself seems to provide the best option for scripting/creating images for
our electronic map room, as well as for graphics included in publications
and reports. While IDV has great flexibility in terms of reading in
datafiles from a number of different formats (such as not needing to
convert netcdf files to gempak format for plotting), GEMPAK and GARP are
still hard to beat. Perhaps I just need to spend more time learning IDV.
Grin.
