# # $Id: 648da55f534de392186f05e4e8614f72d012dbc4 $ # nbspradmapc is a (tcl script) utility that will generate radar image files from the command line. It can create severalk individual images at once and/or a loop of all those images. The loop generation is invoked by giving the -L command line option. In the simplest case it can be executed as nbspradmapc for example, nbspradmapc jua n0r and it will generate the radar image from the latest n0r data file for jua. It accepts a few command line options to modify the default settings, of which the most useful are the following. It can be called like nbspradmapc -l , jua n0r to specify a range of files to process from the list of available files; for example nbspradmapc -l 0,3 jua n0r will process the first (oldest) four files, while nbspradmapc -l end-3,end jua n0r will process the last (most recent) four files. If called with the -L option it will create a "loop" of the all the images. The [-l] option can be specified as above to restrict which images are used to make the loop. For example nbspradmapc -L jua n0r will create a loop file "n0rjua.gif" consisting of all the n0rjua data files found, while nbspradmapc -L -l end-10,end jua n0r will use the ten most recent files. The "-r" option can be used to specify a different rc file instead of the default. The available rc files are radmap-cities.rc radmap-cities-warn.rc and may be others (see nbspradmap.README). Thus, for example nbspradmapc -r radmap-cities.rc jua n0r will add the city names in the radar image. The use of "radmap-cities-warn.rc" requires enabling the gpfilter (at least the "lite" version as described in nbspradmap+warn.README). Once that requirement is satisfied, it can be called like nbspradmapc -r radmap-cities-warn.rc jua n0r and, in addition to the cities, it will draw the warning area polygons using the radar image as background. The "-v" option will turn on verbose mode to give some feedback, which is specially useful when processing a list of files (via the "-l" option). - Wed Dec 31 15:32:38 AST 2008 hu Jul 7 21:34:01 AST 2011
