Prerequisites

The prerequisites are given by the needs of building WRF.

  • NetCDF, must be built with the Fortran interface using the same compiler as used for WRF
  • MPI (for a distributed memory build only), must be built with the Fortran interface using the same compiler as used for WRF

Step by step directions

  • Get WRF-Fire from the public mirror at github.com or repo.or.cz. Access to the mirrors is read-only by git, or your can download a tarball or zip file. Developers use a different git repository by ssh, see the README.txt file.
  • Read the README.txt file in the root directory, and follow the step-by-step directions there. This is only temporary and will be replaced by step-by-step instructions.
  • To run on real data, follow the directions in the file doc/README_wps.txt.
