About:
Metview is a powerful and versatile meteorological workstation application. It provides sophisticated tools for data processing, visualization, and analysis of meteorological data, including GRIB and NetCDF formats. Its primary value is enabling researchers and forecasters to explore, manipulate, and present complex weather and climate data through an integrated environment.
Key Features:
  • Interactive 2D and 3D visualization of meteorological data
  • Support for GRIB, NetCDF, BUFR, and other standard formats
  • Powerful data processing and macro scripting capabilities
  • Integrated graphical user interface and command-line tools
Use Cases:
  • Visualizing and analyzing output from numerical weather prediction (NWP) models
  • Research and education in atmospheric and climate sciences
  • Processing and quality control of meteorological observations
Alternatives:
  • Panoply – A general-purpose netCDF viewer, whereas Metview is specialized for meteorological data with advanced processing features.
  • ncview – A quick visualization tool for netCDF files, less feature-rich than Metview's full workstation environment.
