Generating meteo from ECMWF¶
The present tutorial explains how to generate meteo files from ECMWF data. Further information on the file formats and on how to download the necessary data fro ECMWF is given here.
The meteo is generated using the transform diagmet, which is a modernized Python version of the old diagmet.F90 program.
It is possible to generate METEO files using the yaml below:

The yaml will generate meteo files in ${WORKDIR}/obsoperator/fwd_0000/, therein in sub-folders by date.
Good practices¶
If your are a new user of the CIF or if you use raw files for the fist time, it is safer to follow the steps:
Prepare a yaml for only generating the meteorology (as shown above).
Run the system with this yaml.
Check the generated inputs, as explained in Checking the input files:.
