Hello, I am writing to request your help in the realization of a script. I am
new to this and I'm just learning the wonderful world of python and this has
made me a little difficult.
Briefly I commented what I intend to do:
I detect a class of atmospheric phenomena known as Mesoscale Convective Systems
(MCS). To accomplish this, I have a database of satellites by 2004, every half
hour. These data were downloaded from the server: unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu and
data format is: 200404271515.goes12ir (Area Format)
The first thing to do is detect a convective system in the satellite data,
using the following characteristics:
MCS Criteria
Minimum Size: Continuous cold cloud shield (TIR <219 K and Must Have an area>
34000 km ²)
Duration: Definition of Minimum Size Must Be A Period of Exceed or ≥ 3h
Initiation: Time When the Minimum Size is met
Maximum Extention: Time when the continuous cloud shield (TIR <219 K) is at its
maximum size
Termination: When the Time Minimun Size is not satisfied
where: Temperature Infrarred is TIR
To achieve this, first I created a script in python to identify a MCS in my
database (script in attached)
The script is run from a linux terminal ($ python TIR.py), to run it I get the
following error:
File "/home/mcidasv/JYTHON/TIR.py", line 22
count = count + 1;
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
If anyone can help me with this script or any idea you suggest to improve it,
I would greatly appreciate.
