I have started editing it, see:

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-013:_Gridding_and_Plotting_Station_Data

A couple of points:

1) Could you use the freeware "gfortran" instead of "f95"?

2) I am avoiding the word "interpolation" in this case because it is not
technically correct. Barnes' type of algorithms are better referred to as
"objecive analysis" rather "interporlation" as it often includes
extrapolations. Could you revise the text accordingly?

3) Can you include some sample images?

I'll look into this and upload an example.

Hi

I updated the "How to plot station data in a grid" recipe in

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Plotting_station_data_in_a_grid

Please check if it's all OK.

By the way, I don't understand how to upload files in the cookbook so I
temporarily hosted them outside the opengrads.org domain.

Peace!

Re: [Opengrads-cooks] Point and click value return

[Colleen M. <j.c...@na...>]

Arlindo,

I don't think cumbersome is the right word.  I think just not having  
any experience in contributing to something like that was the main  
thing that slowed the process for me.  I didn't know much about the  
correct syntax, but having access to the earlier submitted recipes  
helped.   I think the fixed format works well.  It keeps things  
simple, but still ample room to explain what you are trying to do.

[Arlindo da S. <da...@al...>]

Collen,
  Absolutely, yes. For example, any recipe covering anything in the script
library would also be very helpful. My hope is that the recipes would be a
good reference for newbies and power users alike.

  BTW, do you find the process for contributing recipes too cumbersome? I've
heard some complaints that having a fixed format with headers, etc, is
annoying. What is  your experience?

OK, I just did small edits and assigned number 012:

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-012:_Converting_GPCC_ASCII_files_to_Binary_and_GRIB-1

It needs a figure or two. Could you include a shaded plot with annual means
and perhaps a timeseries of global means? Syntax is:

[[Image:r012_amean.png]]

[[Image:r012_gmean.png]]

ga-> gxyat -x 400 -y 300 r012_amean.png

Currently it is

     http://gmao.gsfc.nasa.gov/software/lats4d/

Although I'm considering move it to opengrads.org and distribute it with
everything else. In any event, the gmao link will always point to whatever
final destination it turns out to be.

  Thank you for the recipe.

[Opengrads-cooks] ASCII to GrADS-grib recipe

Hi,

I worked out the code quickly. There may be better more robust or 
elegant coding and scripting, but it worked.

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-xxx:_Converting_GPCC_ASCII_files_to_GrADS-Grib

I did want to add a link(s) to the latest lats4d pages, but I'm not sure 
what that might be.

[Opengrads-cooks] Point and click value return

[Colleen M. <j.c...@na...>]

Do you think a quick script that returns a value from a displayed map  
when you point and click on it would be useful for the cookbook?

This is a sample session:

ga-> d va
ga-> val_return va
Click at top of map to clear mouse clicks
Then click on map for point of interest
Click near bottom of the screen to quit
-6.77881
-0.278809
-1.77881
-4.02881

I just did a quick review and assigned number 011:

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-011:_Using_server-side_operations_to_speed_up_analysis_of_OPeNDAP/GDS_datasets

I also change the title to make it more searchable.

Just go back to an existing recipe, click on "edit" and take a look at the
source code. But the syntax is very simple:

[[Image:gds_serverside.png]]

Also, you may want to use gxyat rather than printim for a highter quality
images,

ga-> gxyat -x 400 -y 300 gds_serverside.png

Hi,

I wrote a couple GDS test scripts, they compare typical sdfopen with 
serverside calculations.

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-xxx:_GDS_and_Serverside_Example

I couldn't fine the boilerplate image upload code, but I do have a

Hi All

There is one thing I keep on teaching and teaching to my students and
I decided to make in a recipe way: How to plot station data in a grid.

I started the recipe and its URL is:

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Plotting_station_data_in_a_grid

I implemented and tested it here in Federal University of Rio de Janeiro.

Do you think it will be usefull? It can be in the category "Importing
Data into GrADS", maybe.

Peace

I did some slight editing and assigned a number, take a look at:

http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-009:_Scatter_plot_with_linear_fit_and_basic_statistics

We need a figure. I entered a place holder; click on it and upload your PNG.
A good image size is produced with

ga-> gxyat -x 400 -y  300 scatter_fit.png

It also needs a link.

Let me know what you think.

Mike,

The URL of the page is:
http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Recipe-xxx:_Scatter_Fit_and_Stats

The new recipe generation script uses a frame, which causes the location bar
for that tab to become somewhat misleading. To find the URL of your page
after you save it, you can search for it manually in a new tab, or right
click + copy link from the wiki's recent changes page (
http://cookbooks.opengrads.org/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges ).

Arlindo + others,
It's possible for the new recipe script to print the future URL the page, in
a bar above the frame. Would this be a useful feature?
