Hi everyone, I have some WRF model output data in NetCDF format, and I would appreciate any guidance on projecting it from anyone with experience with data from this model. (WRF = Weather Research Forecasting)
These WRF runs use a Lambert Conformal Conic projection with a center of -121, standard parallels of 30 & 60 degrees North, and a latitude of origin of 45 degrees North. I think I have that figured out, but my data will be off if I don't use the right sphere/spheroid. My understanding is that WRF uses a sphere of 6370 KM with no flattening. Does this look right?
