2 g2lib-1.0 - August 2003 - Original version
4 g2lib-1.0.1 - October 2003 - Added support for Grid Definition Template 3.31
6 - Added new parameters to the Parameter list in
8 - Minor documentation updates.
10 g2lib-1.0.2 - February 2004 - Added new parameters in params.f for use with
11 Quickscat data and Ozone (Air Quality)
13 g2lib-1.0.3 - May 2004 - Changed most PDT templates in module pdstemplates to
14 allow negative surface values.
15 - Added new routine to gridtemplates and pdstemplates
16 modules to return number of entries in a specified
18 - Added New routines, getgb2p getgb2rp, used to request
19 a packed GRIB2 message from a file.
20 - New module g2grids can be used to return GDT entries
21 for a specific grid from a file containing a list of
24 g2lib-1.0.4 - August 2004 - Added functionality to support encoding of
25 "Missing" data values within the data field when
26 using Data Representation Templates 5.2
27 (complex packing) and 5.3 (complex packing and
28 spatial differencing). See octets 23 - 31 in DRTs
29 5.2 and 5.3 for more info on missing value
31 - Increased the packing efficiency of Data
32 Representation Templates 5.2 and 5.3 by adding
33 MDL/Glahn algorithm for determining effective
36 g2lib-1.0.5 - December 2004 - WMO approved the JPEG2000 and PNG Data
37 Representation Templates ( 5.40000 and 5.40010,
38 respectively ) for operational use. The templates
39 were assigned WMO values of 5.40 and 5.41,
40 respectively. Changes were made to the source to
41 recognize either template number.
42 - Fixed bug encountered when packing a near constant
43 field with DRT 5.40 or 5.40000 (JPEG2000).
44 - Added consistency check, provided by
45 Arthur Taylor/MDL, used when unpacking Data
46 Templates 7.2 and 7.3.
47 - Corrected the documentation for subroutine
48 addfield in the grib2.doc file. Incorrect
49 arguments were specified for this routine.
50 - Corrected bug when packing Secondary missing
51 values in Data Representation Templates 5.2 and
54 g2lib-1.0.6 - April 2005 - Modified the way GETGB2 manages the GRIB2 file
55 indexes, so that it can be more efficient and
56 flexible when reading from multiple
58 - Fixed bug in PUTGB2 that caused data fields to be
60 - Added routine gdt2gds that converts grid information
61 from a GRIB2 Grid Description Section (GDS) and
62 Grid Definition Template to GRIB1 GDS info.
64 g2lib-1.0.7 - April 2005 - Fixed bug causing seg fault when using JPEG2000
65 encoding algorithm on a grid with an insanely large
66 number of data points bitmapped out.
