Gustavo,

NMAP2 implements the drawing of the model products through GDPLOT2 restore 
files.
The $GEMTBL/nmap/mod_res.tbl file provides the restore file used for the 
product you
are displaying.

In your case below, the 
PMSL_EST_1000-500_THICK

menu entry is using the restore file:
$NMAP_RESTORE/modl/ecmwfg/pmsl_ethkn

You can load this in your script which runs GDPLOT2 by the GEMPAK command:
restore $NMAP_RESTORE/modl/ecmwfg/pmsl_ethkn

You can then add the GDFILE, GDATTIM, GAREA and PROJ parameters from your 
script since these
are generally something particular to your script or the GUI.
