Enhance MET to support scaling of input data fields and point observations in config files. #802

Open dwfncar opened 7 years ago

dwfncar commented 7 years ago

When comparing MET output to VSDB output for global data, we found a difference in the output of the O3 mixing ratio (O3 in VSDB output and O3MR in MET output).


On theia, compare... (also, sample output is attached)
VSDB: /scratch4/NCEPDEV/global/noscrub/stat/vsdb_data/pres/00Z/gfs/gfs_20170401.vsdb
MET:
/scratch4/BMC/dtc/John.H.Gotway/GFS_MET_VSDB_Compare/met_data_NWPROD/pres/00Z/gfs


There is a difference in output of about 7 decimal places. Could add support for scaling to the MET config files. [MET-802] created by johnhg

This is related to the unit conversion task of @PSTARTGH-610@PEND.


After reading it data, let the user define the unit conversion they'd like to perform. Consider using the UD-units NetCDF package... or not. by johnhg
