Don't forget to consider the /NM option at the end of the PROJ so that
everything is constant at various zooms.

Hi Mike,
If you can't get the exact specs from the SPC, then trial, error, and a lot
of patience will eventually get the maps perfectly aligned. The image on "
http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/validww.png"; has dimensions of 582 x
408. How I would approach this painful process...
1) Save validww.png to your local computer
$gpmap
clear all the values except:
MAP=1
MSCALE=0
GAREA=20;-110;40;-50
PROJ=str/90;-96;0
PANEL=0
TITLE=1
TEXT=1
CLEAR=YES
DEVICE=gif | us_test.gif | 582 ; 408
2) run gpmap and compare the image us_test.gif with validww.png
3) rerun gpmap by tweaking the GAREA / PROJ until us_test.gif and
validww.png are perfectly aligned
I tried the following:
GAREA=20;-110;40;-50
GAREA=20;-120;40;-50
GAREA=20;-120;40;-40
GAREA=20;-120;40;-60
GAREA=20;-115;45;-60
GAREA=20;-115;45;-65
GAREA=20;-115;50;-65
GAREA=22;-112;50;-67
I'm giving up b/c I don't have time to do this...but you should be able to
match them up eventually.
Hopefully you can get the actual specs or someone out there knows a better
way of doing this.
Regards,
Evan Lowery

Subject: [gembud] Orienting map in GEMPAK 5.11.4
Hello, I spoke with a forecaster at the Storm Prediction Center about the
way that they orient the map. He was telling me it was either LCC or NPS (I
think). I am trying to orient the lines so that if I draw me a personal
outlook, that I can verify it exactly with a SPC map, to verify reports with
my outlook. Can you guys please help me?
Here is a perfect example:

I would like to see a return to pre-compiled binaries, including
PPC and Intel Mac as well as some of the more popular Linux variations.
I do not have the support or time to put together all the
dependencies and have always greatly appreciated the precompiled binaries.
