Re: [decoders] Grib File Data Extraction

NOTE: The decoders mailing list is no longer active. The list archives are made available for historical reasons.


I'm having problems spotting the necessary information in the indexer output.

I ran the indexer and got the output attached at the end.

Presumably this contains the necessary data for input to Grib1GetData,
namely the byte offset,

Grib1GetData [gribFile] [byte offset] [scale] [BMSExists]

But I can't spot the offset for the data section in the output of the indexer.
Where is it?


Indexer output:

index_version = 6.0
grid_edition = 1
location = data/seaTemp1
length = 390002
created = 2008-08-04T17:16:15Z
center = 58
sub_center = 0
table_version = 3

ResCompFlag = 128
Winds = Relative
La2 = 90.0
Lo2 = -0.5
Dx = 0.5
Dy = 0.5

I want to extract data from the data record. Presmumably the Grib1GetData
class does this.
