WRF-GoogleEarth repository

Authors:
Jonathan Beezley  University of CO, Denver
Lin Zhang         University of UT, SLC

This repository contains scripts for creating KMZ files from WRF output files
as well as classes that can be extended for customizing the output.  A description
of the code can be found at http://www.openwfm.org/wiki/Visualization_in_Google_Earth.
The main script, nc2kmz.py, generates a file called fire.kmz, which when opened
in Google Earth shows the heat flux coming from the fire as a ground overlay.  This
script will not work on idealized simulations because they cannot be geolocated.
The script take one argument, the output NetCDF file,

python nc2kmz.py <wrfout>

Python modules required:
  matplotlib
  netCDF4  or  Scientific
