Sample data
- Providers are asked to provide full sample data from one model run containing all expected parameters, steps, forecast types etc.
- Naming convention for sample data:
lcgcr_<centre WMO origin>_<YYYYMMDDRR>_<prod/test>_an.grib2
prod/test ... production or test version of the data - Merge all parameters from all steps for given model run and output type into one file:
e.g. test reanalyses from ECMWF on the 1st of September 2017, 12Z => lcgcr_ecmf_2017090112_test_an.grib2 - Put sample data on this ftp:
