WDB Description

WDB is a database system designed to store meteorological, hydrological and oceanographic (MHO) data. WDB is a database system designed to store meteorological, oceanographic and hydrological (MHO) data in a PostgreSQL database management server. The purpose of the WDB system is to improve the quality and effectiveness of IT systems for MHO production by providing a flexible and effective data storage solution for real-time and archive data. Here are some key features of "WDB": Decode and store meteorological forecast fields · WDB has loading programs to load forecasts, analysis, etc. stored in GRIB1 format. Metadata is provided for HIRLAM fields Decode and store oceanographic fields · WDB has loading programs to load wave and circulation models stored in GRIB1 files. Metadata is provided for WAM fields Flexible retrieval interface · The WDB Call Interface (WCI) allows the extraction of entire fields or points (time-series) from the database using an SQL-based function interface. · WCI is compatible with C++; it should be usable in C, Java, Perl, Python, and Fortran as well (however, these interfaces are not yet tested). Requirements: · PostGIS · PostgreSQL What's New in This Release: · This release changes the way metadata encoding is handled in the loading programs. · Metadata information for cross-referencing data providers, parameters, etc. are now stored in configuration files rather than in the database, in order to facilitate easier editing of the metadata and cleaner interfaces between the database and the loading programs. · As usual, there are also minor metadata changes and bugfixes.
