Due to historical reason analysis date and time values are currently encoded incorrectly in MACC_GFAS file and directory names so dates in directory names do not match file names and the actual data dates.


Here is an example of the location and the file name of a latest analysis as of this morning:

MACC_GFAS
/DATA/MACC_GFAS/20170913> ls *frpfire.grib
-rw-r--r--    1 anonymou ec         25920120 Sep 13 05:30 z_macc_c_ecmf_20170912120000_gfas_an_sfc_frpfire.grib

/DATA/MACC_GFAS/20170913> grib_ls -p date,time,step z_macc_c_ecmf_20170912120000_gfas_an_sfc_frpfire.grib
date        time        step        
20170912    1200        0

This file contains 00:00 - 23:59 analysis from the 12 Sep.

To make directory and file names more compliant with ECMWF practices, we've created a new parallel stream called CAMS_GFAS with exactly the same GFAS data but using a more consistent naming and date convention.

The same data is available in this file in the new stream:

CAMS_GFAS
/DATA/CAMS_GFAS/20170912> ls *frpfire.grib
-rw-r--r--    1 anonymou ec         25920120 Sep 13 05:29 z_cams_c_ecmf_20170912000000_gfas_an_sfc_frpfire.grib

/DATA/CAMS_GFAS/20170912> grib_ls -p date,time,step z_cams_c_ecmf_20170912000000_gfas_an_sfc_frpfire.grib
z_cams_c_ecmf_20170912000000_gfas_an_sfc_frpfire.grib
date        time        step        
20170912    0           0-24       
1 of 1 messages in z_cams_c_ecmf_20170912000000_gfas_an_sfc_frpfire.grib

The data will become available in the new stream at the same time as in the existing MACC_GFAS stream until December 2017, when old stream MACC_GFAS will be phased out.
