4 James & York River Detail
5 Hampton Roads Model near VIMS
6 Global or National Scale Winds for Research Models Small number of models: Global Forecast System (GFS) North American Meso(NAM) NARR- North American Reanalysis Format: Gridded Binary (GRIB) Small number of relevant grids defined by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) WMO #1 5 Global WMO #2 2.5 Global WMO #3 1 Global WMO # Global WMO #212 32km CONUS WMO #218 12km CONUS For researching specific events, scientists commonly use one-off conversions or hard coded solutions.
7 Regional and Local Scale Winds for Real Time Modeling Localized atmospheric models use nonstandard grids for higher resolution coverage of regions of interest (e.g, 8km, 4km, 2km) Local modelers and archivists often use subsets of larger models for space and speed concerns Interoperability with local models requires use of metadata about the local models
8 File Level Metadata filename: rams-2km_chesapeake path: file global attributes: dimensions: g0_lat_0 = 206 g0_lon_1 = 162 lv_isbl2 = 14 variables: float PRES_GDS0_SFC_10 ( g0_lat_0, g0_lon_1 ) center : US National Weather Service - NCEP (WMC) long_name : Pressure units : Pa _FillValue : 1e+20 level_indicator : 1 gds_grid_type : 0 parameter_table_version : 2 parameter_number : 1 model : Global Wind-Wave Forecast Model forecast_time : 0 forecast_time_units : minutes initial_time : 10/30/2009 (00:00)... float g0_lat_0 ( g0_lat_0 ) long_name : latitude GridType : Cylindrical Equidistant Projection Grid units : degrees_north Dj : Di : Lo2 : La2 : Lo1 : La1 :

15 Conclusions Working with local atmospheric modelers provides high quality winds for storm surge and inundation modeling, but requires more data management infrastructure and automation than research models. Standardization of data and metadata enables interoperability with data providers modelers and data consumers The flexibility provided by using the metadata enables near-real-time research and realtime forecasting
