Bill,

Would you happen to have a table for center 58 sub-center 42 version 2?
It would of been around time period 19970101.

Thanks,
RObb...

Robb:

(I thought I had sent a reply but I don't see it in my sent items).

I'll have to check with the keeper of the tables; she's out today.  Finding an
appropriate version for your set of products for an earlier time period may be
problematic.

I assume that you're receiving our grib products with the filename that starts
with US058.  In that productname, there is a date starting at character 34 and
the parameter name starting at character 66 or 67.  If you have the date range
and the parameters of interest, then I can look for the table that covers the
time period(s) of interest.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the new FNMOC version 3 table. The new table was helpful. By
any chance do you hava a copy of FNMOC table version 2 for decoding older
data?

Thanks,
RObb...

We have several versions of the parameter table.  I might have previously
provided you with the version with the legacy parm assignments.  I thought
the table that I sent was the final word.
 
So, I've attached the current version that CAGIPS uses.  This has only three
numbered parms with duplicates numbers (33, 34, 134); they have something
like '_mn_trnc18' appended.  Those can be removed from the table if those
special cases are not being subscribed.
 
As far as the problem that Robb Kambic referenced, the only 0001 parm that
applies is 'pres'.  The others are invalid and, in fact, are no longer used,
except for the lift_cdns_lvl which is actually assigned to 246.
 
The attached file should straighten things out.  Let me know if there are
any problems or more questions.

Hi Michael,

Here's the url to the web parameter table:

http://www.usgodae.org/docs/layout/pn_parameter_tbl.pns.html


I have a question, some of the parameters have multiple entries, ie
pressure

0001  pres                              Pa
pressure
0001  pres_inc                          Pa
pressure increment
0001  pres_coef                         Pa
pressure coefficient
0001  pres_bdy                          Pa
terrain pressure
0001  lift_cdns_lvl                     m
lifting condensation level

Do you know which one should be used? The FNMOC data has center 58
sub-center 0 and version 3 for all the data, so how could one
distinguish which one to use?

Thanks,
Robb...

Thanks for the table Michael. I can't find the url for the old table,
sorry. If I come across it again, I'll sent it.

Thanks,

Hi Michael,

I'm looking for the FNMOC parameter tables, center 58 and version 3.
The table that's on the web is missing some of the parameters unless
I'm looking in the wrong place. If you could send me the latest table

or a pointer to the latest web table, I would appreciate it. If this
message is not in your scope, could you pass it on to someone that
can

answer it.

Thanks,
RObb...
