DESCRIPTION
ctbtmet2db converts MET Bulletin files from the International
Data Centre of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test ban Treaty Organization (www.ctbto.org)
into an antelope database in ctbto1.2 format.
The MET bulletin holds simple meteorologic paramters from the met station colocated to each
radionuclide station in the IMS network of the CTBTO.
The Specifications I found are note really clear regarding the NULL values used in the
MET bulletins. I guess every value of -99 means a NULL.
OPTIONS
-
filename
Met Bulletin in MET:IMS2.0 format
-
dbname
output database inf format ctbto1.2. This database will be created when not existing
DIAGNOSTICS
Not in IMS2.0 or IMS1.0 format
The message seems to have the wrong format
BUGS AND CAVEATS
If no DATA_TYPE line is found,
ctbtmet2db assumes IMS2.0 format at the
first instance that it hits an EVENT line.
ctbtmet2db is a state-machine
that reads input lines successively from all supplied input files. If a
file after the first file does not have an explicitly specified DATA_TYPE,
the format (IMS1.0, IMS1.0:SHORT, or GSE2.0) will carry over from the
previous file.
