[GEMPAK #XFB-497782]: GDPVSF GEMPAK: Error Messages



Hi Vanesa,


Thank you for attaching the grid file.  I was able to "plot" with GDPLOT2 and 
GDPLOT3 an empty map, meaning I did not encounter the erorrs

GEMPLT -16]  NIPBND - Invalid projection bounds. 
[DG -37]  No reference grid navigation is set in GPLT. 

while running the program.  However, the grid you are trying to plot is not 
found in the grid file you sent me.

with GDINFO:

 GDFILE   = gfsanl_4_20121028_0000_000.grd
 LSTALL   = YES
 OUTPUT   = T
 GDATTIM  = 121028/00
 GLEVEL   = 715
 GVCORD   = hght
 GFUNC    = TMPC

 [GDU 2]  Did not find any matching grids.




Your file DOES contain grids at 715m HGHT, but not for TMPC:


GDFILE   = gfsanl_4_20121028_0000_000.grd
 LSTALL   = YES
 OUTPUT   = T
 GDATTIM  = all
 GLEVEL   = 715
 GVCORD   = hght
 GFUNC    = all

I do not see any grids with GVCORD  =pvbl, so I'm not sure if the grids created 
with GDVINT and GDPVSF are what you actually wanted.

For example, when I plot THTA values on a 1.5 PV surface, the GDPLOT2 input 
used is


GDFILE  =vcord_thta_270-380.grd
GDATTIM =f00
GLEVEL  =15
GVCORD  =pvbl
PANEL   =1
SKIP    =0
SCALE   =999
GDPFUN  =thta
TYPE    =f
CONTUR  =1
CINT    =10
LINE    =3
FINT    = 10/280/380
FLINE   = 24;25;26;27;23;22;21;20;19;16;15;14


I've attached a scripts that I used in the past to generate THTA on PV surfaces 
and plot them.  It may help you to take a look at the process and compare with 
your own to see if and where there are differences.
