Gridpp is a program to post-processes weather forecast files, primarily in NetCDF. The software supports two types of operations:

  • Downscaling a field from one grid to another
  • Calibrating a downscaled field based on observations

Download example files

In order to test gridpp, download these two example files: input file (315 MB) and output file (0.7 MB).

The output file contains a small domain covering south eastern Norway. Downloading the output_large file (58 MB) if you want to test gridpp on the whole Scandinavian peninsula.

About the dataset

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.
