Golam,

I see you are having trouble getting started with using MET.  A good
place
to start is our online tutorial at:
https://dtcenter.org/community-code/model-evaluation-tools-met/online-
tutorial.
<https://dtcenter.org/community-code/model-evaluation-tools-
met/online-tutorial>

Under Tutorial Setup -> Compilation -> Tutorial Setup, there
instructions
on how to download a set of test data to demonstrate how to call the
tools
and then steps through basic calls to each tool.  Once you know the
basics,
you can advance to using your own data.

Computation of traditional statistics like RMSE and skill scores would
be
done in tools like Grid-Stat (passing in 2 gridded files) or Point-
Stat
(passing in a gridded forecast file and a file containing point
observations).  It's unclear to me what "Skill Score" you are trying
to
compute.  There are several and might be computed using different
methods
and may require requesting different "line types" to be requested.

Please check out the online tutorial and then let us know what
questions
you have.

Thanks, Tara
