Tools to convert Wind Speed and Direction to U and V to create the OBS_DOMAIN (WRF)

57 views Asked by At

I am trying to implement the observation data to WRF model simulation as instructed in ObsNudgingGuide.pdf file

http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/users/docs/ObsNudgingGuide.pdf

I have the Wind turbine SCADA data contains wind speed and direction details (Table-1), I want to convert the wind speed and direction data to U and V component and use it in OBS_DOMAIN.

I am searching for the python/NCL script which could convert the SCADA Wind Speed and Wind direction to U and V or directly convert data to OBS_DOMAIN format as instructed in PDF (Image-1), It would be much help full.

DateTime, Wind Speed, Wind Direction
