  • Each partner will provide their eps data on a 1.5/1.5 regular lat-lon grid for both ocean and atmosphere. First grid point is 90N 0E. The data will be archived first from west to east (OE to 358.5), and then from north to south (90N to 90S). The related GRIB 2 meta data called scanning mode  should equal to 0.
    • Scanning mode 0

      • i scans positively (west to east)
        • i points are consecutive
      • j scans negatively (north to south)

  • Grids are defined in GRIB2 using an accuracy of 1/1000000 (one millionth) of a degree. If this accuracy is not sufficient to describe your grid (latitude/longitude of first and last points, as well as grid increments) without loss of information, you can use a GRIB2 feature that provides a way to describe any regular grid. See the page on encoding global latitude/longitude grid for more details.
  • Ocean parameters
    • follow the same rules but the  data is on a 1.0/1.0 regular lat-lon grid
