How to compile the postprocessor
|
|
================================
|
|
The postprocessor is a C++ program requiring the NetCDF C++ library
|
|
|
|
The makefile is configured to look for:
|
|
|
|
1) The include file "netcdfcpp.h" in directory /opt/local/include
|
|
2) The library file "libnetcdf_c++.*" in directory /opt/local/lib
|
|
|
|
If doing "make" produces errors, locate these files and adjust
|
|
the I-path and the L-path in the makefile accordingly.
|
|
|
|
If you don't find the netcdfcpp.h file, you may want to install the
|
|
netcdf package or ask your administrator to do it.
|
|
|
|
After successfull compilation copy the executable "burn7.x" to a
|
|
directory in your PATH. Administrators may choose
|
|
/opt/local/bin or /usr/local/bin.
|
|
Users may just copy it to $HOME/bin and make sure, that the
|
|
PATH variable includes $HOME/bin.
|
|
|
|
The burn7 is backward compatible and can process data files
|
|
produced with older versions of PUMA or PLASIM.
|
|
PUMA and PLASIM version 16 however require burn7.
|
|
|
|
New features and changes
|
|
========================
|
|
Burn7 now uses the C++ version of the NetCDF library.
|
|
It uses less memory and runs faster than Burn6.
|
|
It has a better compatibility to the CF and NetCDF standard.
|
|
|
|
How to use the postprocessor
|
|
============================
|
|
Look into the PUMA or PLaSim User's Guide (chapter postprocessor).
|
|
A quick reference card can be found in this directory in file "burn7qr.pdf".
|
|
|
|
More diagnostic software and tools
|
|
==================================
|
|
It is strongly recommended to install following free software:
|
|
|
|
NetCDF - common data format
|
|
cdo - climate data operators
|
|
grads - graphics software
|
|
ImageMagick - graphics software & tools
|
|
|
|
For MAC users:
|
|
==============
|
|
Use "port" for easy installation. If you don't have port,
|
|
download it from "www.macports.org" and install it.
|
|
Installing is then as easy as:
|
|
|
|
sudo port install netcdf
|
|
sudo port install cdo
|
|
|
|
etc.
|
|
|
|
Good Luck
