[gradsusr] Using g2ctl.pl/gribmap with Monthly CFSR Data

[Michael Barton]

I am still getting undefined values for the grid. The problem may stem from g2ctl.pl, as I am receiving an error when I run it:

*** script needs to be modified ***
*** unknown grid ***

I am not sure why the perl script can't read a standard at lon grid..

Here is the output from gribmap -v -b -i your.ctl :
I will keep playing with it in the mean time. Thank you for your help.

I think the CFSR data might need the -b option with gribmap. Try it in verbose mode (-v) and send the output:
> gribmap -v -b -i your.ctl

I am trying to read the monthly CFSR GRIB2 files into Grads with no success. I am using GrADS Version 2.0.a9, wgrib2 v0.1.8.5 6/2010, and g2ctl v0.0.7. I am running Linux x86_64 I am also including the -fix_ncep option with wgrib2.

I believe my .ctl file is correct. It loads, and contains the correct dimensions/variables, but has undefined values for every variable. I have tried several options when running gribmap that produce the same results. Is there a known fix for this?

Thank you for your help,
