Fleetcode by scripting

Stefan Lichius · Post by **Stefan Lichius** » Sun Dec 26, 2004 12:19 pm

Hi all,

I produce every morning a weather map of europe with the synop surface data and the fronts by fleetcode. (http://www.gdhm.de/gdhm_bodenkarte.gif).
My question:
Is it possible to import the fleetcode data automatic by scripting?
Until now I`m downloading it by hand, import it and put it on the map.
Any idea is appreciated.

thanks,
Stefan

Try this (I took it from different scripts)

download,http://ftp.hb-yacht.ch/ASXX21.@D@S00,d:\Mijn Documenten\Digital Atmosphere\data\fleet.dat
ingest,d:\Mijn Documenten\Digital Atmosphere\data\*.*
fleet

Greetings

I use...

download,http://ftp.hb-yacht.ch/ASXX21.@D0000,c: ... \fleet.inf
ingest,c:\digatm\data\fleet.inf
fleetf,0,
fleethl,0,

That's for 00Z, sub 0600, 1200, etc. for the 0000 after the letter D
There is probably a way to get the "last" current file auto, but I haven't needed figure out that one yet.

Hello Wally

The only difference between our scripts is ASXX21.@D@S00. I end with @S to get the main synoptic hour (06,12,18: see page 62 of the manual) and add 00 to it.

Can you try this and let me know if it's correct?

Greetings
