Update LIS DA obs reader to read ASCAT Metop-B and C from SMOPS V4
NOAA-NESDIS is planning to retire the legacy SMOPS product, a change that will directly impact the LIS DA system. Currently, the LIS DA system assimilates SMOPS data using the following naming convention: "NPR_SMOPS_CMAP_Dyyyymmddhh.gr2". However, the new files will adopt a different naming convention, illustrated as follows: NPR-SMOPS-CMAP-6hrly_v4r0_blend_syyyymmddhh00000_eyyyymmddxxxxxxx_cyyyymmddxxxxxxx.grib2.
Steps:
To accommodate these changes, we need to update the LIS code to enhance the capability of the DA system to:
1- read the new file names. Additionally,
2- update the GRIB ID based on the latest version of the GRIB ID table
3- add modules to read and assimilate ASCAT-Metop-C.
