MET Online Tutorial for METv8.0 | ASCII2NC > Run

Since ASCII2NC simply performs a reformatting step for data in the MET point observation format, no configuration file is needed.

Run ASCII2NC on the command line twice using the following commands:

ascii2nc \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/input/sample_obs/ascii/sample_ascii_obs.txt \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/output/ascii2nc/tutorial_ascii.nc \
-v 2
ascii2nc \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/input/sample_obs/ascii/precip24_2010010112.ascii \
$MET_TUTORIAL_DATA/output/ascii2nc/precip24_2010010112.nc \
-v 2

ASCII2NC should perform these refomatting steps very quickly.
