Can someone point me to some 'sample' code as I am having trouble
understanding how this code works. I did the same with synop code worked
through an 'actual' code determining what numbers meant what. One thing
I have not been able to establish is a list of locations to code, like
synop 03002 etc, which is the station locater. Is there such a list yet?

Many thanks

.... The WMO have a whole host of papers etc., detailing the changes: the
one most pertinent would appear to be ....

The three 'layers' are designed to introduce users in ascending order of
complexity ;-)

Layer 1 appears to have some examples, including a comparison of SYNOP
and CREX format. However, you may need Layer 3 for the 'Full Monty'
unfortunately.

The location indicators, AFAIK, will remain as we know them. They will
be separated, as I understand, into a group with II and one with iii, so
the info will be there.

Best of luck!

Martin.

Thanks Martin, that does seem to walk you through it better. Also
having the 'word' option is better for searching within a document,
something you can't do with .pdf.
