SMPC using NinJo Batch 1.3 (2)Sören Kalesse, Deutscher WetterdienstEGOWS '09, De Bilt (NL)

Agenda

• What are SMPC and NinJo Batch?

• Example products

• Architectural overview

• Runtime parametrization

• Conclusions & Outlook


What is SMPC?

• concept: Scheduled Meteorological Product Creation

typical time constraints of a meteorological product:

model runbased on a

issue timewill be issued at a

valid time/rangewill be valid at a

time

manipulate and create the product

issue and distribute the product

• products might be:» forecast chart, diagram, analysis plot, ...


What is SMPC? (2)

• NinJo 1.3 knows two ways of approaching SMPC

non-interactiveNinJo Batch

concept: parametrization

interactiveProductWorkbench

concept: interactive editing


What is NinJo Batch?

Bundle of NinJo client/server components used fornon-interactive Scheduled Meteorological Product Creation

• main goal:» automated production of maps of meteorological data

» key concept: runtime parametrization of NinJo– product properties changed at runtime by an external source

– multiple scenes stacked into one single product

– extensive annotations through legend framework

• What NinJo Batch is not» no data manipulation, no animations, no webpages

» distribution is not part of NinJo Batch

» no user interaction


Agenda







NinJo Batch – Example Products (1)

• observations and derived products

satellite images

sat composite maps

radar/SCIT composite maps



• model output

NWP grid fields

meteograms

cross-sections


• custom plots

• Example

» loop over forecast time in 3h steps to produce forecast animations


Conclusion and Outlook

• operational launch at DWD is underway» towards an operational product management system

• WMS support is currently been worked on» GeoTIFF export of maps to support raster coverages

» SpatialFile and GML may be used for exporting model output as vector data coverage

• NinJo Batch as client/server component bundle provides» scalable/distributed architecture for non-interactive SMPC

» theoretically everything that can be displayed in NinJo is batchable

» key-concept: runtime parametrization and configuration

» uniform and flexible request language

mid term goals:

Thank You for Your attention!


Example request

• form a Batch request to the BatchWebRequestHandler

./request -D 2008.11.24#16:00 // displaytime: 00+16h -o 600 -bl // request options -p BatchProcessor.0 // use Processor 0 -d BatchProcessor.0 // force Processor 0

-V path.PATH_PROPERTY=gme~surfpressure~01-016-2008-11-24-00-00.png -V dimension.DIMENSION_PROPERTY=800#800 // 800x800px

-V grid.GRID_ELEMENT.ModelRun=..#00:00 // model run: midnight -V grid.GRID_ELEMENT.ForecastTime=H=16 // forecastime: +16h -V grid.GRID_ELEMENT.Model=GME // global model
