zyGrib is a program to download and visualize meteorological forecast data in
|
|
|
|
|
the standard formats GRIB 1 and 2. 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.

|
- Atmospheric sounding forecast displayed on SkewT-LogP thermodynamic diagrams
|

|
|
- Waves (height, direction, period, whitecap probability for wind waves, swell,

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.
