Use this ticket to point to UGRID datasets to be used for development and testing.

triangle mesh

• FVCOM (velocity components on faces, all other data on nodes)
• ADCIRC (all data on nodes)

hex mesh:

• MPAS uses hexes.

hybrid mesh:

• DELFT3D
• SCHISM

The group at CSDL is working on some schism simulations. I'll try to find the person doing the work and ask them to contribute. If they only have a few files and don't have a server set up, how would you like them to contribute? Where should they send them?

[kwilcox]

Thanke @dpsnowden. They can put them up somewhere we can download them or email if they are small enough.

NOAA/NOS operational models:

-FVCOM and SELFE-based OFS: https://opendap.co-ops.nos.noaa.gov/thredds/catalog.html. The operational FVCOM-based OFS are NGOFS, NWGOFS, NEGOFS, LEOFS, SFBOFS. The under-development FVCOM-based OFS are LMHOFS, LSOFS (POM-based now, will be FVCOM), and INGOFS (Integrated NGOFS, not available yet). The SELFE-based OFS is CREOFS.

-ADCIRC-based ESTOFS: http://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/ (under "Ocean Models"). ESTOFS Atlantic, Pacific, and Micronesia are the operational models.

-SCHISM: CSDL has had some "exploratory planning" as @dpsnowden mentioned, am inquiring to see if/when sample files could be provided

Below is a link to a sample SCHISM file. It's a test case done by the SCHISM folks and is not being checked/verified by NOAA/CSDL. CSDL does not yet have results from our own testing. Will keep you posted as we progress.

Currently have decent test datasets for:

• FVCOM
  • USF WFS (from SECOORA)
  • CO-OPS SFBOFS
• DELFT3D
  • SanFran Bay Hybrid Mesh
• SCHISM
  • Some sample file (haven't looked at it)
• MPAS
  • Sample file I found here: https://mpas-dev.github.io/atmosphere/real_data.html
• ADCIRC
  • this downloaded to a file
