- sample files ecmf.*.grib2 files come from ECMWF's IFS model (data based on the current ERA5)
- ecCodes Version 2.40.0 should be used to display correctly some LC-GCR related meta data
- currently it supports mainly centre=ecmf
- support for other participating models (centre=babj/rjtd/kwbc/nasa) can be added only once we understand full details, how reanalyses are produced by the providers
- for example exact encoding of time ranges will differ for different models depending on how daily sums are constructed etc
- for example following applies to ERA5:
- analysis are produced 1-hourly for 0-23h
- daily accumulations are computed from 2 forecasts (0-18h) starting at 18 UTC on day X-1 and 6 UTC on day X
- first 6 hours are omitted (spin-up) and only 6-18h periods are used to get 0-24h sum for day X
