Description Of Changes
In processing the WMO files that come across the LDM feed I was running into problems where there were certain bytes that were not able to be parsed with the UTF-8 decoding. This PR adds a helper to the open file to escape those bytes and allow the read to continue, specifically
errors='surrogateescape'
in_tools.py
. I have added a file that contains that problem and added a test to cover the issue.Checklist
