[IDV #ZYC-601489]: Trying to make Wind Barbs from U and V components

Brian,

Can you upload your data to

http://motherlode.ucar.edu/repository/alias/idvupload

and let us know when it is there?

You should just be able to plot your vectors by selecting the correct field
under "derived" in the "Field Selector" in the IDV dashboard. You should see a
"True Wind Vectors" option there.

If not there, it is possible you may have to set a parameter alias to have it
recognize the U and V.

Either way, let us know.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support

> V components but it's failing to plot the wind barbs. I'm not sure if
> I'm doing something wrong but I'm going into the Formulas and picking
> "Speed from 2 components" then picking my u component for my x and the
> v component for my v.
