GRIB Driver Error

[cayetanobv]

GDAL GRIB Driver can't read any icing and turbulence grib2 files distributed by Wide Area Forecast System (WAFS). However GDAL GRIB Driver read without problems other grib2 WAFS variables (temperature, wind, etc.).

Shell output error:

$ gdalinfo --debug on /home/cayetano/grib_example

GRIB: This was only designed for templates 0, 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 20, 30

ERROR 4: /home/cayetano/grib_example is a grib file, but no raster dataset was successfully identified. gdalinfo failed - unable to open '/home/cayetano/grib_example'.

NOAA's WGRIB2 read without problems these files and export perfectly to NetCDF. Shell output example using WGRIB2:

$ ./wgrib2 -V /home/cayetano/grib_example
