The
WMO abbreviated heading is used to identify the NCEP GRIB messages; however, it
is not a complete description of their content. The user is
cautioned against using the header as the sole
determiner of the record content; one should, of course, rely on
the Product
Definition Section for that purpose. Note: In the following, a hexadecimal number is enclosed in parentheses followed by the designation "hex". The information needed to identify the NCEP product is contained in 21 octets. The characters are encoded using the CCITT-ITA No. 5, also known (in the US) as ASCII characters, and are defined as follows:
The first six characters are commonly referred to as: T1 T2 A1 A2 ii In summary... Generic Meaning of T1 T2 A1 A2 ii : T1: Type of bulletin: "H" for GRIB messages for Family of Services, WAFS, and International Exchange. "O" for Oceanographic GRIB bulletins intended for general International and National Exchange and for use in the NWS AWIPS program. "E" for oceanographic GRIB2 bulletins intended for general International and National Exchange and for use in the NWS AWIPS program "Y" or "Z" for GRIB bulletins destined for the NWS AWIPS program. "Y" for WAFS GRIB2. "L" for products in XML format. T2: Type of data/parameter A1: Grid A2: Analysis or forecast hour ii: Numeric. Usually a pressure level, sometimes just a sequence number. Some values have special level or layer meanings. In the following tables, the columns headed AWIPS are augmentations to the common Family of Services (FOS), National, and International Exchange variables. FOS, National and International GRIB messages (with H as the initial character) draw upon the left hand columns only. National, International, and AWIPS GRIB messages (with O as the initial character) draw upon the middle column only. AWIPS GRIB messages (with Y or Z as the initial character) use letters from both the left and right columns. If each column contains entries for the same designator, the T1 character (H, O, Y, or Z) indicates which entry to use. NOTE: The characters 'L' and 'M' are used no more for the AWIPS products starting in August, 2014. The character 'L' is the WMO official designation for new products in XML format. |
