## page was renamed from press2fl
=== Program press2fl ===

This program converts datasets from pressure coordinates to flight levels. <<BR>>
The input file must be an ECMWF file in NetCDF format with the coordinates ''press, lat, lon'' and ''time'' and four-dimensional parameters with the dimensions ''press, lat, lon'' and ''time''. All four-dimensional parameters are converted from pressure coordinates to flight levels.
A new NetCDF file with the coordinates ''flightlevel, lat, lon'' and ''time'' and four-dimensional parameters with corresponding dimensions is created.


==== Configuration file ====

The options for the execution of ''press2fl'' can be set in the configuration file '''press2fl.inp''':
