Dear Zablone, Rafael and other kind researchers,<br> I tried to follow your advice and tried to use the lats4d command but error message occurred "Command not found". Then I started to install different libraries from <a href="http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/supplibs.html" target="_blank">http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/supplibs.html</a> but when i installed the zlib by following the steps:<br>
</blockquote><div><br></div><div>1) Lats4d is not able to write GRIB2 datasets, only GRIB-1. </div><div><br></div><div>2) Lats4d is not available with the standard grads v2 from COLA; you will need an opengrads bundle release for that:</div>
