Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
I am currently working on a Windows programm GFS grib manager,
suitable for Windows users who work with Grads.<br>
<br>
The current version is 0.07 Beta, and you can:<br>
<br>
* Choose model run time, date<br>
* Choose model dataset, currently available (GFS 0.25°, GFS 0.25°
secondary parms, GFS 0.5°, GFS 1°)<br>
* Choose required forecast length, step<br>
* Set required Levels, Variables, Subarea (you don't have to
download full gribs which are big in size, choosing right subarea
and skipping the Levels and Variables you don't need significantly
reduce the size of the grib<br>
* Download partial gribs based on your settings<br>
* Concetenate all partial gribs into one monolythic grib file<br>
* Create control (.ctl) and index (idx) files for use e.g. GRADS -
Requires Perl for Windows to be installed<br>
* Create a Windows batch file (.bat) based on your setting, which
you can schedule to run automatically<br>
<br>
Future plans:<br>
* Built-in Scheduler<br>
* more DataSets<br>
* Create Grads outputs without knowing
scripting, or having any Grads scripts (I will distribute my own) -
Will require Grads/Opengrads to be installed<br>
* Visualize required parameters with
build-in grib processor on Google maps, Openstreet maps<br>
* and many more<br>
<br>
I currently need volunteers to beta test my releases and provide me
with feedback (about 10 more). So if you are interested, please let
me know.<br>
