Bathymetric Attributed Grid (BAG) is a file format designed to store and exchange bathymetric data.. The implementation of the format was triggered by the large adoption of gridded bathymetry and the need of transferring the required information about bathymetry and associated uncertainty (i.e., metadata) between processing applications.
To address a growing need for remote access to high volume numerical weather prediction and global climate models and data, the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), along with the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), initiated the NOAA Operational Model Archive and Distribution System (NOMADS) project.
Integrated Surface Database (ISD) is global database compiled by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) comprising hourly and synoptic surface observations compiled globally from ~35,500 weather stations; it is updated, automatically, hourly.
Map of regions covered by the 122 Weather Forecast Offices. The National Weather Service operates 122 weather forecast offices. [1] [2] Each weather forecast office (WFO or NWSFO) has a geographic area of responsibility, also known as a county warning area, for issuing local public, marine, aviation, fire, and hydrology forecasts.
The data is available for free download from the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory [1] and NCEP. [2] It is distributed in Netcdf and GRIB files, for which a number of tools and libraries exist. It is available for download through the NCAR CISL Research Data Archive on the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis main data page.

A useful set of command line tools Archived 2017-08-27 at the Wayback Machine is also included. ECMWF also offers the plotting package Magics Archived 2019-10-16 at the Wayback Machine and the Metview workstation/batch system to handle/visualise GRIB files. QGIS - QGIS is a graphical open source software that can visualise GRIB files.
The Citizen Weather Observer Program is a program to collect surface weather observations from thousands of privately operated weather stations, into the FindU database, and forward it to the Meteorological Assimilation Data Ingest System (MADIS Archived 2009-03-12 at the Wayback Machine), operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
