Main Capabilities

  • Modify WRF input data over an area of interest using a shapefile mask
  • Modify data using a latitude/longitude bounding box
  • Modify values at specific grid points (list of lat/lon coordinates)
  • Modify data within the innermost WRF subdomain
  • Replace variable values from a GeoTIFF file into WRF input data
