Backfilling surface verification data (jet)

Determine date range to backfill (may be helpful to check database tables, or just convert known dates to epoch time)

Check if obs data are available for this date range?

Check if model data are available for this date range?

jet: Check if /home/role.amb-verif/ruc_madis_surface/surface_driver_q1_backfill.pl includes the model of interest. (Will likely need to update if backfilling has not been performed for this model before.)

• If needed, add elsif clause for this model ($data_source) (copy from surface_driver_q1.pl)

jet: Check if /home/role.amb-verif/ruc_madis_surface/get_iso_file3_backfill.pl includes the model of interest. (Will likely need to update if backfilling has not been performed for this model before.)

• If needed, add elsif clause for new model(s) ($data_source) with dir ($anal_dir) convention (copy from get_iso_file3.pl)

• If needed, add elsif clause for new model(s) ($data_source) with filename ($base_file) convention (copy from get_iso_file3.pl)

jet: run command (using slurm recommended):

sbatch /home/role.amb-verif/ruc_madis_surface/surface_driver_q1_backfill.pl [model] [starttime] [endtime] METAR
