GRIB0/GRIB1 decoder This GRIB decoder for editions 0 and 1 has been tested on Sun/Solaris and PC/Linux systems. Documentation is included with the source code. Not all grid types can currently be decoded. See the documentation for the grid types that are supported. Contact Bob Dattore to get a grid type added.

This sample C program is an example of how to use the GRIB0/GRIB1 decoder.
GRIB2 decoder This GRIB2 decoder has been tested on Sun/Solaris and PC/Linux systems. Documentation is included with the source code. Not all grid types/products/data representations can currently be decoded. See the documentation for information on what is supported. Contact Bob Dattore to get more grids/products/representations added.

This sample C program is an example of how to use the GRIB2 decoder.

For JPEG 2000 gridpoint packing (known to be widely used by NCEP), you will need the JasPer and JPEG 6-B libraries:
GRIB2 to GRIB1 converter This C program will convert from GRIB2 format to GRIB1 format. You will also need the GRIB2 decoder, above, and the JasPer and JPEG libraries. Not all GRIB2 products and grid definitions can currently be converted. The program will let you know if there is a problem. Contact Bob Dattore to get conversions added for other products and grid definitions.
