This package contains these bufr-related programs and utilities:
(See examples of their output)
The source code for these programs can be downloaded and compiled (705Kb, tar.bz2). To produce them in your Linux box, you need only the standard GNU g++ compiler and make utility
In each of the subdirectories of the downloaded archive, you will find:
| bin | it will contain the binaries (after you compile them) |
| src | the source code and the makefile that creates the binaries in the bin directory |
| doc | detailed description for the usage of those binaries |
| tables | the WMO tables A, B, and D needed to decode the bufr files |
| samples | files, containing one bufr record each, of the most common meteo data, to experiment with |
You should definitely read the usage details to see what each program can do and how you ask it to do it!
If you are not very familiar with WMO's bufr format, you should read at least the doc/wmo_userGuide.pdf (or download a later version from WMO site www.wmo.ch)
If you want to ask anything else about, report a bug, or comment on these programs, mail me at andreadis@hnms.gr
Finally, many thanks to sourceforge.net for hosting this
