The available datasets include NOAA-GFS -(weather and wind conditions, above ground and at altitude) and FNMOC-WW3 (wave -conditions). It is possible to create animations from the forecast data of the -selected region and to export them as a set of images. - -The available data include: - -- Mean sea level pressure -- Wind 10m above surface -- Wind gusts -- Temperature 2m above surface -- Minimum and maximum temperature 2m above surface -- Relative humidity 2m above surface -- Total precipitation (mm/h) -- Cloud cover (%) -- Dew point 2m above surface -- 0 deg C isotherm -- Snow (rain-snow line and snowfall risk) -- CAPE (convective available potential energy) and CIN (convective inhibition) -- Data at altitude (wind, temperature, theta-e, geopotential altitude, relative - humidity) at 925, 850, 700, 600, 500, 400, 300 and 200 hPa levels -- Atmospheric sounding forecast displayed on SkewT-LogP thermodynamic diagrams -- Waves (height, direction, period, whitecap probability for wind waves, swell, - and for significant, maximum, primary and secondary waves) -- Sea currents (not provided by zyGrib's data server) - -The zyGrib source package ships with the code for Qwt (an extension library for -QT) and NOAA's g2clib (decoder/encoder routines for GRIB 2): both are built -automatically and linked statically: this will not affect already installed -libraries. - -zyGrib is distributed under the GNU GPL, version 3. |
