- Every hour, we receive data from Exeter, Toulouse, and Offenbach.
- Every three hours we receive data from Washington.
- Once a day we receive data from Tokyo.
- Every Monday from Melbourne.
- Every first of the month from Montreal.
Three kinds of data are received:
*
- Observations
- GRIB
- fields
- Satellite
- images
The acquisition is done in three steps:
*
- The
- data
- is
- received
- from
- the
- outside
- world.
- The
- data
- is
- processed.
- The
- data
- is
- stored
- in
- a
- database.
Once a day the data received the day before is extracted from the database and written into the archive.
What to do:
- Write the suite definition for this suite
Useful pointers:
Because there is no standard unix Unix date manipulation command, you can use ecf_date.
