Next, we'll run Shift-Data-Plane on the command line using the following command:
shift_data_plane \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/input/sample_fcst/2005080700/wrfprs_ruc13_12.tm00_G212 \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/output/shift_data_plane/shift_pres.nc \
'name="PRES"; level="Z0";' \
-from 39.74 -105.00 \
-to 41.88 -87.63
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/input/sample_fcst/2005080700/wrfprs_ruc13_12.tm00_G212 \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/output/shift_data_plane/shift_pres.nc \
'name="PRES"; level="Z0";' \
-from 39.74 -105.00 \
-to 41.88 -87.63
This command shifts the surface pressure field from Denver, CO to Chicago, IL and is meant to simply illustrate the functionality of this tool. On the next page we'll plot the result.
