This wiki page explains how to transform geotiff files to geogrid using convert_geotiff script in wrfxpy.

Get Anaconda3 distribution

Download and install the Python 3 Anaconda Python distribution for your platform. We recommend an installation into the user's home directory.

wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-2019.10-Linux-x86_64.sh
chmod +x Anaconda3-2019.10-Linux-x86_64.sh
./Anaconda3-2019.10-Linux-x86_64.sh

Install environment

Create a python environment for gdal compatibility. Shortly this is going to be the environment for wrfxpy installation.

conda create -n wrfxpy python=3 gdal netcdf4 pyproj paramiko dill scikit-learn h5py pandas psutil proj4
conda activate wrfxpy
conda install -c conda-forge simplekml pygrib f90nml pyhdf xmltodict basemap
