LicenseIntroductionThe OpenIFS model is provided in several compressed tarfiles (source code and datafiles) available from the OpenIFS ftp site. Only licensed users are provided with the username and password to access the ftp site. For more information, or to request a license, please email: openifs-support@ecmwf.int. OpenIFS is provided free-of-charge and licenses are usually per institution. OpenIFS directory layoutThe model will unpack into a directory called 'oifs'. The directory structure for the OpenIFS model and code will depend on local installation requirements. A suggested directory structure has all source code and data organised under a single directory 'oifs'. If desired, the grib_api and FCM software could also be installed under the oifs directory but it's recommended they are placed elsewhere. |
