Hi,
I am using netcdf-java 5.3.3 to read various bufr-files. It works very well,
but 2 things are strange:
1. Compared to other tools, I got sometimes different values for the variable
"obs.Radiosonde_type", -114 in this case. This is a invalid value, since the
values of this enum are only positive.
2. I also got "Unknown enum value" for several enums, for example
"obs.Radiosonde_type". In netcdf-java 5.4.1 these values are NULL. I am not
sure, if this a problem with your library, since many (not all) enums can be
transformed to string (NetcdfDatasets does this job) and only BUFRdisplay was
able to transform "obs.Radiosonde_type" for me.
Here are my test results:
- BUFR Viewer https://kunden.dwd.de/bufrviewer/
LSSW 0 02 011 RADIOSONDE TYPE
CODE_TABLE 10** 0 0 8 bits 142 [ 142.000 ]
DWSG 0 02 011 RADIOSONDE TYPE
CODE_TABLE 10** 0 0 8 bits 124 [ 124.000 ]
- toolsUI 5.3.3 https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf-java/
LSSW Radiosonde_type = "Unknown enum value=-114" CodeTable
0-2-11
DWSG Radiosonde_type = "Unknown enum value=124" CodeTable
0-2-11
- toolsUI-5.4.1 Only NULL for both files
- BUFRdisplay http://www.elnath.org.uk/
LSSW 8,"Radiosonde type","Code table","0-02-011",142 ->
Vaisala RS41 with pressure derived from GPS height/AUTOSONDE (Finland)
DWSG 8,"Radiosonde type","Code table","0-02-011",124 ->
Vaisala RS41/AUTOSONDE (Finland)
- ecCodes https://confluence.ecmwf.int/display/ECC/Releases
LSSW "key" : "radiosondeType", "value" : 142, "units" :
"CODE TABLE"
DWSG "key" : "radiosondeType", "value" : 124, "units" :
"CODE TABLE"
