This component generates data by downloading available data from the NILU/EBAS/WDCA archive. Because the download size can be large there can be a long waiting time for data to begin.

Usage

da.generate.fromebas [switches…​] station…​ times

Switches

--profile=STRING

This is the profile name to generate data for. Different profiles can generate different sets of data. Consult the station configuration for available profiles.

Default: aerosol

Arguments

station

This argument is used to specify the station used to look up variables that do not include a station as part of an archive read specification. The station is the three letter GAW station code of the location, such as BND. The argument accepts multiple stations specified as regular expressions and separated by : or ; or ,. For example BND,MLO and (BND|MLO) are two ways of selecting both the BND and MLO stations.

The special value allstations may also be specified to select all stations.

times

This argument may be split into multiple actual program arguments. This full list of time arguments defines a time bounds list that sets the range of data queried. The final resulting data are clipped to the given time bounds but any values that intersect them are returned.

Examples
