Generate a realtime trajectory #92

Open Sammy219 opened 2 years ago

Sammy219 commented 2 years ago

Hi all, Is it possible to generate a real time trajectory? What types of meteorological data can be used besides gdas1? Can we use gfs or hrrr as meteorological data source like READY HYSPLIT uses?

Can someone help explain about the parameter and its function/purpose? And can someone help to demonstrate the code?

Thanks a lot!!

Not quite sure what you mean by real time trajectory. PySPLIT bulk trajectory generation works with any weekly or semi-monthly ARL-formatted meteorology data. I have not tested it with daily or monthly files. You can also use PySPLIT on trajectories directly generated in HYSPLIT.

See docs/examples for a modest example gallery demonstrating basic PySPLIT usage.

Thank you for your response.

Sorry but I don't understand about using and adjusting pysplit parameter in docs/example. Can you help explain like how to modify it as needed for basename parameter and so on?

Does the meteorology file have to be provided manually and not auto-download when it's not in the directory?
