upa files from weather.cod.edu/digatmos/upa/ about sharppy HOT 4 OPEN

Hi there!

Unfortunately no, and definitely not as shown right here. This is a broadcast format that requires an extra decoder and special logic to handle. For example, this data isn't for a single weather balloon - each TTAA message shown corresponds to 6 different weather balloon sites. There are also TTBB and PPBB messages required to reconstruct the temperature and wind profiles, which are likely in the dataset but organized in such a way that you would have to parse and decode the entire file. Decoding these messages is not trivial, and is traditionally handles by legacy C and FORTRAN decoders.

I do have some somewhat working Python code that would decode this, with the goal of including it in the MetPy package, but I have no ETA on when that will be ready for production.

If you are looking for data in a format that SHARPpy can handle, I would recommend loading text data from the University of Wyoming Sounding Archive.

Thank you very much for the answer. Unfortunately for some unknown reason the soundings for my area (Spain) are not available on that link, and I don't know where to get them in a format that SHARPpy can read. Can someone maybe give me a clue where to find them?

Hi, What format of the text data from University of Wyoming Sounding Archive, read SHARPpy?

I try each one but SHARPpy said:

OSError: Could not figure out the format of

Hi again, sorry for the insistence, ;-). I have found that in the web OGIMET are the sounding data from Spain, with this structure:

It's possible to process with SHARPpy?
