Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Good afternoon,
I recently started using METS and I am encountering an error when I try to
generate any plot.
I think my data is loaded into the METS database in NO GROUP under the
dataset called mv_hcb_GFnc_nsst2. Whenever I try to plot any statistics I
get an error popup menu that says “Failed to Parse Plot Job”. I included a
screen shot of my setup below.
This actually happens even when I try other datasets. Based on your online
tutorials I can’t seem to determine the problem and was wondering if you
could help me.
Thank you
Hannah

Hello Hannah,
I see you have questions about getting started with METviewer using
the
NOAA/GSD instance. First, let me say that it does take a while to get
used
to using METviewer. There's definitely a learning curve. But I took
the
partial selection you sent and was able to complete them to make the
attached plot.
I've attached both a plot and an xml file. Please do the following...
(1) Save the XML file to your machine.
(2) Go to https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gsd/metvgsd/metviewer1.jsp
(3) In the top-right corner, click "Load XML" and in the pop-up
"Upload
plot XML file" menu click "Browse".
(4) Navigate to the XML file you saved... and click "OK" to upload the
settings from the XML file into the GUI.
(5) In the top-middle of the GUI, click the "Generate Plot" button.
You should now have the same image I sent as an attachment. Notice
the
following:
- Even though you requested 4 MODEL's, only 2 of them actually have vx
data
for 500mb Anomaly Correlation.
- I added several more filtering options in the "Fixed Values" section
to
make a more specific plot.
- In the Independent Variable section, I defined the X-axis using the
FCST_VALID_BEG.
- I added titles and formatting options.
Hopefully this will help get you started. FYI, there are some folks
over
at NOAA/GSD who are pretty familiar with using METviewer. I'd suggest
talking to Bonny Strong, Venita Hagerty, Randy Pierce, or Molly Smith
to
learn more about it.
Thanks,
John Halley Gotway

Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me. I can see that there is definitely a
learning curve. After looking at some examples I was able to get the
figures I was trying to make.
Best
Hannah

Hannah,
Glad to hear it! You should also be aware that NOAA/GSD is working on
a
visualization product named METexpress. It’s basically a simpler
version
of METviewer with a subset of METviewer’s functionality but an easier
learning curve. It’s a MATS-like interface, if you know what that
means.
I believe that Molly Smith (cc’ed here) is the primary person working
in
that. She might be interested to see the METviewer plots you made to
know
whether METexpress would be useful to you.
Thanks,
John
