Description: How to read SYNOP BUFR messages. ! Please note that SYNOP reports can be encoded in various ways in BUFR. Therefore the code ! below might not work directly for other types of SYNOP messages than the one used in the ! example. It is advised to use bufr_dump first to understand the structure of these messages. ! ! program bufr_read_synop use eccodes implicit none integer :: ifile integer :: iret integer :: ibufr integer :: count = 0 integer(kind=4) :: blockNumber, stationNumber real(kind=8) :: lat, t2m, td2m, ws, wdir integer(kind=4) :: cloudAmount, cloudBaseHeight, lowCloud, midCloud, highCloud call codes_open_file(ifile, '../../data/bufr/syno_multi.bufr', 'r') ! The first bufr message is loaded from file, ! ibufr is the bufr id to be used in subsequent calls call codes_bufr_new_from_file(ifile, ibufr, iret) do while (iret /= CODES_END_OF_FILE) write (*, *) 'message: ', count ! We need to instruct ecCodes to expand all the descriptors ! i.e. unpack the data values call codes_set(ibufr, "unpack", 1) !read and print some data values. This example was written ! for a SYNOP BUFR file! ! wmo block number call codes_get(ibufr, 'blockNumber', blockNumber) write (*, *) ' blockNumber:', blockNumber ! station number call codes_get(ibufr, 'stationNumber', stationNumber) write (*, *) ' stationNumber:', stationNumber ! location call codes_get(ibufr, 'latitude', lat) write (*, *) ' latitude:', lat call codes_get(ibufr, 'longitude', lat) write (*, *) ' longitude:', lat ! 2m temperature call codes_get(ibufr, 'airTemperatureAt2M', t2m); write (*, *) ' airTemperatureAt2M:', t2m ! 2m dewpoint temperature call codes_get(ibufr, 'dewpointTemperatureAt2M', td2m); write (*, *) ' dewpointTemperatureAt2M:', td2m ! 10m wind call codes_get(ibufr, 'windSpeedAt10M', ws); write (*, *) ' windSpeedAt10M:', ws call codes_get(ibufr, 'windDirectionAt10M', wdir); write (*, *) ' windDirectionAt10M:', wdir ! The cloud information is stored in several blocks in the ! SYNOP message and the same key means a different thing in different ! parts of the message. In this example we will read the first ! cloud block introduced by the key ! verticalSignificanceSurfaceObservations=1. ! We know that this is the first occurrence of the keys we want to ! read so we will use the # (occurrence) operator accordingly. ! Cloud amount (low and middleclouds) call codes_get(ibufr, '#1#cloudAmount', cloudAmount) write (*, *) ' cloudAmount (low and middle):', cloudAmount ! Height of cloud base call codes_get(ibufr, '#1#heightOfBaseOfCloud', cloudBaseHeight) write (*, *) ' heightOfBaseOfCloud:', cloudBaseHeight ! Cloud type (low clouds) call codes_get(ibufr, '#1#cloudType', lowCloud) write (*, *) ' cloudType (low):', lowCloud ! Cloud type (middle clouds) call codes_get(ibufr, '#2#cloudType', midCloud) write (*, *) ' cloudType (middle):', midCloud ! Cloud type (high clouds) call codes_get(ibufr, '#3#cloudType', highCloud) write (*, *) ' cloudType (high):', highCloud ! Release the bufr message call codes_release(ibufr) ! Load the next bufr message call codes_bufr_new_from_file(ifile, ibufr, iret) count = count + 1 end do ! Close file call codes_close_file(ifile) end program bufr_read_synop
