As for your questions, you should have no trouble using GEMPAK for the Arabian 
peninsula, as long as you have data sources for the region such as surface 
observations, satellite imagery and gridded models.  If you use the Unidata IDD 
and LDM to receive data you will have those sources.

As for the finest grid resolution, the finest offered is dependent on the 
model, not the software.  For example, the worldwide GFS 0.5 degree grids are 
processed by the GEMPAK decoders and displayed by the GUI.

Hope this answers your questions,

Michael James
