I am having difficulty finding some good documentation regarding GDGRIB2. Specifically, the G2TBLS, G2IS, G2IDS, G2PDT, and G2DRT sections. The method to my madness here relates to the fact that our television graphics system will only recognize a few PDTs, the most common being 4.0. Since not all datasets use this template, I have had to use wgrib2 to manually change the PDT of a given dataset, and then call the variable I am working with something other than what it is. Sounds a little unorthodox, but as long as I know what the variable name is referring to, everything is fine. So, to have any chance of showing some of the more elaborate ensemble data on the air, I really need to understand the syntax behind these 5 entries. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
