Re: 20030813: GEMPAK modifications contributions : anyone interested in these modifications?



Hi Steve,

I received your list below and will work through as time permits.
The easiest additions are those which are independent of the core
code- I can place the sferics additions into the contrib path
and can make the packing table precision suggestions back to NCEP.
Independent tables are no problem.

Ok

Modifications to code under the $GEMPAK/source require more time
as I am preparing the next release in time for the GEMPAK workshop
October 27-30.

Ok, I understand.


If you want, FTP a tar file to ftp.unidata.ucar.edu
login: gbuddy
pass: 41gempak
place under the incoming directory.

Otherwise, if you can send me a URL where to download on your
end, that is fine too.

Thanks a lot for considering these modifications!

Hi Steve,
Hi everyone,

I made many modifications in GEMPAK, I don't know if a few could be
interesting to include in the next official version (it would also save
me some work each time GEMPAK is updated ;-) ). I will only list the
modified files for now and send you the ones you think could be
included.

1) SFUK packing table (European lightning data : sferics)
gempak/tables/pack/sfuk.pack

2) SFUK decoder (European lightning data : sferics)
I built the decoder from scratch, so the source code may not comply to
GEMPAK standards.

3) Tenth precision in precip amounts for dclsfc
gempak/tables/pack/sfsyn.pack
gempak/tables/pack/lsfc.pack

4) 30 min bins for dcmetr
gempak/source/bridge/dc/dcgtim.f
gempak/source/bridge/mt/mtdcod.f

5) 30 min bins and also SPECI included in decoded data in a separate
instance of dcmetr called dcmetr_speci
gempak/source/bridge/dc/dcgtim.f
gempak/source/bridge/mt/mtdcod.f

6) 1h bins SYNOP data in a separate instance of dclsfc called dclsfc_1h
gempak/source/bridge/ls/lsgemp.f

7) GEMCLRBAR environment variable added to control the display of the
colorbar
gempak/source/gemlib/im/imdrop.f

8) More complete list of european/canadian stations, as well as
ordering changes
gempak/tables/stns/sfmetar_sa.tbl
gempak/tables/stns/lsfstns.tbl

9) More complete upper-air soundings stations list
cat snstns.tbl snstns_land.tbl snstns_ship.tbl > snall.tbl

10) Europe-decoded MAX/MIN temperatures
gempak/source/bridge/ls/lstemp.f
gempak/source/bridge/ls/lswgem.f

Also, any hope to see values like 10.2 displayed by sfmap or related
programs?

Thanks,

Christian Pagé

Gempak users,

The Unidata release of GEMPAK 5.6.K is now available for download from the UPC web portal my.unidata.ucar.edu. A few of the features included
in this
release are:
o Addition of PNG display device driver
o Ability to display ZLIB compressed GINI images without uncompressing
  externally
o New programs GPNEXR2 and NEXR2RHI for display of NEXRAD Level II
(aka craft)
  data stream products. DCNEXR2 for uncompresing the BZIP2 IDD feed
data files.
o NSHARP profiles from point selected in NMAP2
o WOU and WCN bulletin decoder and display improvements
o Grid data improvements for accessing larger data sets by allowing
sub-sampling
  of larger grids for display and dignostic calculations.
o Grid table updates for NCEP grid tables 129 and 130, and vertical
coordinate
  updates for new levels.
