SMPC using NinJo Batch 1.3 (2) Sören Kalesse, Deutscher Wetterdienst EGOWS '09, De Bilt (NL) Agenda What are SMPC and NinJo Batch? Example products Architectural overview Runtime parametrization Conclusions & Outlook

SMPC using NinJo Batch 1.3 (3) Sören Kalesse, Deutscher Wetterdienst EGOWS '09, De Bilt (NL) What is SMPC? concept: Scheduled Meteorological Product Creation typical time constraints of a meteorological product: model run based on a issue time will be issued at a valid time/range will be valid at a time manipulate and create the product issue and distribute the product products might be: »forecast chart, diagram, analysis plot,...

SMPC using NinJo Batch 1.3 (4) Sören Kalesse, Deutscher Wetterdienst EGOWS '09, De Bilt (NL) What is SMPC? (2) NinJo 1.3 knows two ways of approaching SMPC non-interactive NinJo Batch concept: parametrization interactive ProductWorkbench concept: interactive editing

SMPC using NinJo Batch 1.3 (5) Sören Kalesse, Deutscher Wetterdienst EGOWS '09, De Bilt (NL) What is NinJo Batch? Bundle of NinJo client/server components used for non-interactive Scheduled Meteorological Product Creation main goal: »automated production of maps of meteorological data »key concept: runtime parametrization of NinJo –product properties changed at runtime by an external source –multiple scenes stacked into one single product –extensive annotations through legend framework What NinJo Batch is not »no data manipulation, no animations, no webpages »distribution is not part of NinJo Batch »no user interaction

SMPC using NinJo Batch 1.3 (7) Sören Kalesse, Deutscher Wetterdienst EGOWS '09, De Bilt (NL) NinJo Batch – Example Products theoretically anything that can be displayed in NinJo is batchable! Observations: »radar maps »satellite maps »station observations »composites of the above Forecasts (model output): »simple grid element plots »meteograms, cross sections Custom plots: »model composites »lagged average plots, model comparisons
