NCEPLIBS-g2 Library

The NCEPLIBS-g2 library reads and writes GRIB edition 2 files.

GRIdded Binary or General Regularly-distributed Information in Binary form (GRIB) is a data format for meteorological and forecast data, standardized by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). GRIB edition 2 (GRIB2) was approved by the WMO is 2003.

This library is part of the NCEPLIBS project.

For more detailed documentation see https://noaa-emc.github.io/NCEPLIBS-g2/. For the NCEP WMO GRIB2 Documentation see https://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/grib2/grib2_doc/.

To submit bug reports, feature requests, or other code-related issues including installation and usage questions, please create a GitHub issue. For general NCEPLIBS inquiries, contact Edward Hartnett (secondary point of contact Alex Richert).
