The development is done in the frameworks of the Destination Earth initiative. # Description -The OBSALL application is currently being developed as a set of scripts (written in `bash`, `fortran`, `python`): -1. for pre-processing (with operators of `cdo`, Climate Data Operators, software) gsv_extracted modeled data (over latitude-longitude domain) for selected meteorological variables into hourly time-slices (00...23 UTCs); -2. for extracting (using `sql` with `odb_api` software) selected meteorological variables at hourly time-slices for observations from: (i) ground-based synoptical stations at fixed at the surface geographical locations/points (i.e., 2D: latitude, longitude); (ii) vertical radiosounding of the atmosphere at changing locations/points (3D: latitude, longitude, single pressure level), and (iii) satellite at changing locations/ points (3D: latitude, longitude, multiple pressure levels); -3. for extracting and interpolating (using `cdo` operators - for synop; & expecting/using `polytope` - for radiosounding and satellite) modeled data for the same time-slices for same selected meteorological variables into corresponding locations/points of (synop, radiosounding, satellite) observations, and adding (using `import` with `odb_api`) such data to ODB; -3. for calculating/ producing relevant statistics such as quantile rank histogram statistics and plots (t-test and others to be added) +The OBSALL Apps is currently being developed as a set of scripts (written in `bash`, `fortran`, `python`): +1. for pre-processing (with operators of `cdo`, Climate Data Operators, software) gsv_extracted modeled data (over latitude-longitude domain) for selected meteorological variables into time-slices: SYNOP - 00, 06, 12, 18 UTC; TEMP - 00, 12 UTC; AMSU-A - 00...23 UTC; +2. for extracting (using `sql` with `odb_api` software) selected meteorological variables at time-slices for observations from: (i) ground-based synoptical stations at fixed at the surface geographical locations/points (i.e., 2D: latitude, longitude); (ii) vertical radiosounding of the atmosphere at changing locations/points (3D: latitude, longitude, single pressure level), and (iii) satellite at changing locations/ points (3D: latitude, longitude, multiple pressure levels); +3. for extracting and interpolating (using `cdo` operators - for SYNOP and TEMP; & expecting to use `polytope` - for AMSU-A and TEMP) modeled data for the same time-slices for same selected meteorological variables into corresponding locations/points of (synop, radiosounding, satellite) observations, and adding (using `import` with `odb_api`) such model data to ODB (Observational Data Base); +3. for calculating/ producing relevant statistics such as quantile rank histogram statistics and plots (and others to be added) for monitoring for SYNOP, TEMP and AMSU-A Parts. # Part SYNOP SYNOP (ground-based/surface observations) 1. `main_synop.sh` - main bash-script to run Apps for observational data for synoptical stations.
