Bureau (ngamai) utilities portal
- APS2 related utilities (highest)
- APS2 Obs Monitoring and Bias Correction (can be run in stand alone, so not critical for handover)
- APS3 Archiving
- APS3 Verification
- APS3 Observation, Bias Correction & SMOCS
- waiting on review from Zhihong
- need utility to move from old STASH to Rose config
- this converter is almost running
- strip out unwanted STASH from rose-config file
- converts STASHC to rose-config file
- Next step: combine & test
- this converter is almost running
- need utility to modify STASH
- editor to be created
- NCMWRF are also interested in ways to handle STASH according to TAG
- Need to prepare a decent set of requirements. Current thoughts include:
- GRIB2 or netcdf
- GRIB2 needed for some operational downstream systems
- netCDF for OpENDAP - should be highest priority for APS3
- IRIS seems to be faster tham UM converters
- UM should have netCDF output by middle of next year
- IRIS should be a suitbale layer for providing data for verification
- Obs as either ODB2 or netCDF/HDF5
- netCDF better for OpENDAP
- conversion to netCDF reasonably straightforward
- Need obs reading layer and frid reading layer
- quite possibly provided by Tennessee's Quality Assurance Team as part of their verification work
- Verification should be valid date centered
- verify all data that can be at end of run
- currently use a base-date approach.
- Need to allow for a variety of retention periods depending on type of files.
- GRIB2 or netcdf
