RADOLAN

RADOLAN is the German Rainradar system of Deutscher Wetterdienst

DWD Information on RADOLAN

Dwd logo 258x69.png

see also Document list below

DWD Radolan Opendata

The data is stored in proprietary file formats based on Fortran conventions. As of 2018-08 we did not find an open source Java library to read these formats so BITPlan decided to make one available. Fortunaly Jonny Schäfer created a golang RADOLAN library that was quite easy to port/migrate.

The above two urls are considered "known urls" by the Radolan Java Library and access to these will lead to local caching of the data.

First Steps

Prerequisites

or if you'd like to build the Radolan software yourself:

Downloads

Installation

Make sure the prerequisites are checked. Download the software for your platform from #Downloads or build the software yourself

Starting

Run the software with 

java -jar radolan.jar

or radolan (If you built the software yourself: cd com.bitplan.radolan/release before this command).

Examples

Radar film

Calling radolan with no arguments will show the current DWD radar film radfilm_brd_akt.gif 

java -jar release/radolan.jar

which is equivalent to 

java -jar release/radolan.jar -i https://www.dwd.de/DWD/wetter/radar/radfilm_brd_akt.gif

Radar snapshot

rad_brd_akt.jpg 

java -jar release/radolan.jar -i https://www.dwd.de/DWD/wetter/radar/rad_brd_akt.jpg

Daily summary (SF)

The picture below renders the https://opendata.dwd.de/weather/radar/radolan/sf/raa01-sf_10000-latest-dwd---bin radolan SF file as of 2018-08-18 19:50.

2018-08-18 1950.png

The command to create this picture was: 

java -jar radolan.jar -i https://opendata.dwd.de/weather/radar/radolan/sf/raa01-sf_10000-latest-dwd---bin -o 2018-08-18_1950.png -st 5
  • -i specified the input url
  • -o specified the output image
  • -st specified the number of seconds the image should be shown

Hourly sum (RW)

The picture belows renders the https://opendata.dwd.de/weather/radar/radolan/rw/raa01-rw_10000-latest-dwd---bin file as of 2018-08-17 08:50

Rw2018-08-17 0850.png

The command to create the picture was: 

java -jar radolan -i https://opendata.dwd.de/weather/radar/radolan/rw/raa01-rw_10000-1808170650-dwd---bin -o rw2018-08-17_0850.png -st 5

Historical data (SF)

The picture below renders the ftp://ftp-cdc.dwd.de/pub/CDC/grids_germany/daily/radolan/recent/raa01-sf_10000-1805301650-dwd---bin.gz SF files as of 2018-05-30 16:50

Sf-2018-05-30 1650.png

The command to create this picture was: 

java -jar radolan.jar -i ftp://ftp-cdc.dwd.de/pub/CDC/grids_germany/daily/radolan/recent/raa01-sf_10000-1805301650-dwd---bin.gz -o sf-2018-05-30_1650.png -st 5
