suppose Suppose you have two large GRIB files and their messages are not in order, how do you compare them? One technique is to use the "-r" key for grib_compare. This will compute the md5 hash value of each message (meta-data only) and sort both files (in memory) by that md5 value before doing the comparisonbuild index files from inputs and then compare those index files. |
