- | ===== Current Status: ===== | + | The WDB system consists of a database server system including a read/write interface to the database, a set of loading programs for inserting various types of MHO data into the system, and a http product generator. |
- | WDB is capable of decoding and storing meteorological and oceanographics forecast fields from GRIB files. It allows retrieval of time-series (points) and entire fields using an SQL-based function interface (tested with C++, but should be compatible with Java, Perl, Python and Fortran). | ||
- | ===== | + | ===== WDB Features |
- | Current development goals: | + | * **Decode and store meteorological and oceanographic forecast fields** |
+ | * WDB has loading programs to load forecasts, analysis, wave and circulations models stored in GRIB1 and FELT format. Metadata is provided for HIRLAM fields | ||
- | * Putting | + | * **Flexible retrieval interface** |
- | * Creating a load-balancing and fail-over solution for the WDB system | + | * The WDB Call Interface (WCI) allows |
- | * Improving the test framework | + | * WCI is compatible with C++; it should be usable in C, Java, Perl, Python, |
- | * Improving the performance of the overall system | + | |
