Gridpp is a program to perform post-processesing operations on weather files in NetCDF. The software supports two types of operations:
- Downscaling from one grid to another
- Calibrating the downscaled grid based on a set of parameters
We have created a dataset that can be used for testing gridpp. The set includes two files that can be downloaded here: input file (315 MB) and output file (0.7 MB).
The output file contains a small domain covering south eastern Norway and is suitable for quick testing. Download the output_large file (58 MB) if you want to test gridpp on the whole Scandinavian peninsula (but computation is longer).
The input.nc file contains weather forecasts at 2.5 km resolution from the Metcoop-Arome model used operationally by the Norwegian Meteorological Institute and Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute. The forecast was initialized 2016-01-24 at 00 UTC and gives forecasts for 66 hours forward. Temperature, wind speed, and precipitation is included. This will allow you to test most of the features of gridpp.
The output.nc file is a template file at 1.0 km resolution that you will create forecasts for.
