Plot GRAW Radiosonde Files in RAOB
Once the sounding or sounding simulation is complete, click the “Profile Data Table” button on the upper left portion of the Grawmet window. Save the resulting data table as a text file in /nas/Radiosonde/YYMMDD, with YYMMDD being a directory to hold the sounding data and images. If the folder does not exist, make one. The file name must be in this format:
“YYMMDD_HHMMSS_<3-character location>_GRAW.txt”
where YYMMDD is the year/month/day of the launch, HHMMSS is the hours, minutes, and seconds of the launch start time, and the 3-character location is the identifier for the nearest station (GFK for most soundings).
