wind_file_conversion

This repository contains a number of scripts to convert wind data files into other formats. The included scripts will handle the following conversions:

  • COAMPS-TC to OWI NetCDF
  • HBL to OWI NetCDF
  • HBL (wind) & OWI ASCII (pressure) to OWI NetCDF
  • HWind to OWI NetCDF
  • HWRF to OWI NetCDF
  • OWI ASCII to OWI NetCDF
  • OWI NetCDF (3 Separate Files) to OWI NetCDF (1 File)
  • OWI NetCDF to OWI ASCII

All conversions are accompanied by a Matlab script to compare the input and output files to make sure the conversion worked as intended.

Most of the Python conversion scripts can be called with something similar to: "python3 [conversion_script.py] [file you want to convert] -o [name of output file]". Refer to the code and/or run "[conversion_script.py] -h" for more details on the required syntax.

The Matlab validation scripts will at a minimum require you to specify the input and output file name. Look for comments starting with "UPDATE" for other variables you'll likely need to change.

The COAMPS-TC to OWI NetCDF converter was developed by Zach Cobell and the rest of the converters used Zach's converter as a foundation. Thanks, Zach!
