Have just installed Digital Atmosphere Pro version and am having a little problem with my plots. Although the plot model in the preferences appears to be correct, I am getting something a little different on the maps. Upper air plots are appearing with a number instead of a station circle and something (it looks like it might be an "M") is being plotted either over or under the height value. Not all stations are showing this problem. If I do QC, I find there are numerous reports for each station, several of which are something other than standard upper air reports as they have -9999 for heights and winds. When I remove these reports, the "M" under (over?) the height disappears but I still get a number instead of a station circle. Is there a way to sort these partial reports out of the database once it has been downloaded? I have started using a script to plot the maps and would like to find a way to fix this problem without manual intervention. Obviously, I can't go through every data point manually!
Any advice gratefully received...
