Soundings

How do you generate soundings in Digital Atmosphere?
Hi,
from the help menu
Sounding tab from the data menu
This function allows you to display a
sounding (a SKEW-T diagram, or graph of the
vertical structure of the atmosphere above a
point) for a chosen station. You must have al
ready imported upper air (rawinsonde or FD)
data. You will be prompted to enter the WMO
or ICAO for the station that you want to view.
The “Rescale” button resizes the SKEW-T win
dow to its normal size (unstretches it).
If you do not know the WMO or ICAO
you want to use, you can simply right-click on
any horizontal map window and choose “Dis
play SKEW-T”. Digital Atmosphere will locate
the closest rawinsonde observation and plot
the sounding for you
