[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #99873] History for Filtering Plotted Obs

[John Halley Gotway via RT]

----------------------------------------------------------------
  Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------

John, a nice feature to have in MET if it hasn't already been added is the ability to filter point observations plotted by plot_point_Obs by qc type code.  This would provide feed back on the affects of selecting different qc codes.

Bob,

We did indeed add that as part of a major overhaul to the
plot_point_obs
tool for MET version 10.0.0, released on Monday.

Here's a link to the line in the plot_point_obs config file that
supports
that filtering:
https://github.com/dtcenter/MET/blob/3becf7ef698862a1ce5d52640b2787e49e290e84/met/data/config/PlotPointObsConfig_default#L42

In MET 10.0.0, you can really customize the plot_point_obs output a
ton.
For example, you can plot a field of data and then overlay dots of
various
sizes and colors. Here's an example of an image that's generated as
part of
our unit tests:

The big blue dots are from surface stations and the little blue dots
are
the location of satellite obs. Here's the plot_point_obs config file
which
produces this output:
https://github.com/dtcenter/MET/blob/main_v10.0/test/config/PlotPointObsConfig

Note the 3 entries in the "point_data" array which define different
plotting options for each filtered subset of point observations.

Can't wait - that should be very helpful.
