This can be done by using the grib_set command.
You can use the "setBitsPerValue" key as in:
% grib_set -s setBitsPerValue=17 in.grib out.grib |
or use the "repack" (-r) option with the "bitsPerValue" key:
% grib_set -r -s bitsPerValue=17 in.grib out.grib |
In these commands, we first decode the data values, then change the bitsPerValue key and then repack (i.e., encode those values back in).
It is advisable to check the field values after such a change, for example by printing and comparing the statistics before and after:
% grib_ls -n statistics in.grib % grib_ls -n statistics out.grib |
Of course you can also use grib_compare.
