NAME

r.in.mdv - A script to import a Meteorological Data Volume (MDV) in a XY-location.
(GRASS 6 Raster Program)

SYNOPSIS

r.in.mdv input=MDV-file

DESCRIPTION

The r.in.mdv script imports data from a Meteorological Data Volume (mdv) in a GRASS xy-location.
The 3D-stack of data is imported as a numbered set of raster layers. Additional data layers are derived as preview/quicklook information.

Flags

Parameters

input

[path/]name of the mdv-file

Notes

The script can only be executed in a xy-location.
The code should be considered as a beta-version, which will be replaced by an updated version in the very near future.

The script will import the MDV as a set of raster layers into the mapset. Therefore, the mapset has to be appropriately set before the script is executed. Otherwise data outside the current region will be omitted.

Extract both files into the scripts directory. Make jar-file executable (chmod a+x mdv2008.jar)
