New section 4 templates and tables for verification scores #255

Open sebvi opened 1 month ago

sebvi commented 1 month ago

Initial request

ECMWF is interested in storing verification scores in GRIB2 in a near future.

With the existing GRIB2 templates, it is not possible to properly encode verification scores. The following templates are a proposal of how verification scores could be encoded in GRIB2.

We are not aiming to get this validated for FT 2024-2, we would like to start the discussion and eventually get it as experimental so that we can refine the proposal.
