Import GRB2 Files to Dataset
Hi, I was wondering why GRB2 files are not supported for import. Am I just missing something? Every time I try to create a .vdf or .vdc with the GRB2 file, it crashes. If GRB2 is not supported, I can work around it, but I just find it odd that it's not supported. -Matt

Hi Matt. Sorry for the late response.

Our GRIB converter has some restrictions but it definitely should not be crashing. Is there a way that I could look at one of the files you've attempted to convert? If the file is <25Mb I can get it through email at pearse@ucar.edu.

Unfortunately we are only supporting a subset of GRIB files that contain key/value pairs that VAPOR needs for rendering.  We are working on expanding that subset over time.  Either way, the GRIB converter should not be crashing, and rather it should throw an exception like you suggest.  If there is any way that you could email a small file from your dataset to vapor@ucar.edu, the team would appreciate it.
