Exporting to MGM

The MGM tab of Windographer's Export Data window exports data to the format specified by the Turkish State Meteorological Service (MGM). This format specifies two separate text files per day of data, the 'R' file containing wind speed and direction data, and the 'D' file containing temperature, relative humidity, and air pressure data. Each file must contain 24 hours of data, with one line of data per measurement height per time step.

Windographer shows the MGM tab in the Export Data window if the dataset contains speed, direction, or temperature data. When exporting to the MGM format, Windographer exports a -8888 value for any data point that is missing or flagged to exclude.

When you click Export you will need to specify the folder into which Windographer will save all the 'R' and 'D' files -- one for each day in the date range you have specified.
