Reading automatically parameters from a radar file

[haely12]

Hello everyone,
Hope you’re doing well
Plz how can I read parameters from the file automatically instead of writing them manually
NB : My radar files are in mvol format, and for example here, I want them to be read automatically from the data and metadata without writing them :
r1 = np.arange(1., 250000., 875.)
r2 = np.arange(1., 250000., 875.)
az = np.arange(0, 360)
sitecoords1 = (-9.39195, 30.32317)
sitecoords2= (-7.57288, 33.36729)

Cordially

Hi,

mvol files are most likely GAMIC HDF5 files.

You have several possibilities here:

• use brand new xradar gamic reader: GAMIC - Simple — xradar 0.0.8.dev3+g7cb42bf documentation
• use wradlib gamic reader: Supported radar data formats — wradlib
• use Py-ART gamic reader: pyart.aux_io.read_gamic — Py-ART 1.13.1.post1 documentation

Feel free to ask further questions.
