MARS/Dissemination
Specifies the packing method used in the target GRIB messages.
packing=<value> |
---|
Valid values for latitude/longitude output are simple packing (simple), second order (so) or, for GRIB2 fields, CCSDS (ccsds). Valid values for spectral fields are complex packing (co) or simple packing (simple).
The default packing types for gridded data
Input field | Output packing type |
---|---|
GRIB1/GRIB2 gridded | inherited from input |
GRIB1/GRIB2 spectral | simple |
To preserve the packing of the archived data one would specify archived value (packing = av).
