Hi Jim - this depends on how you are using GEMPAK since it contains many
specific packages.
Generally speaking the NAWIPS package which includes GEMPAK does have a variety
of alternatives that can be used in combo as a surrogate.
Terse descriptions of similar packages available as alternatives are here NSF
Unidata | Home<https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/> under Software.
We are in the process of migrating away from NAWIPS/GEMPAK using a combination
of wgrib2 and python as our data processing core and a combo of AWIPS2 and
python for visualization.
Im sure members of this list have some proven approaches, but if it helps email
me separately from this list if you want some details

Is there an alternative to GEMPAK?
