=== '''VORTRAC tutorial''' ===

This workflow will go through the steps to run VORTRAC, and provide gridded radar data, a center file (.csv) and the XML file. For more information on how to obtain the gridded radar files from the raw radar files, please refer to the '''[http://wiki.lrose.net/index.php/Elle_grid grid tutorial]'''.

==== '''Run program on the command line''' ====
<ol start="1" style="list-style-type: decimal;">
<li>Download the [https://drive.google.com/file/d/18Z9PC6-a2lqMkaFEbecZ3Fsy8lMFmkPl/view?usp=sharing vortrac_tutorial.tar.gz] file</li></ol>
<ol start="2" style="list-style-type: decimal;">
<li>Extract contents into the desired directory</li></ol>

* Create a new folder called <b> vortrac_example </b> (or the user's desired directory)
<code lang="bash">mkdir ~/vortrac_example </code>

* Move the tar file to the <b> vortrac_example </b> folder
<code lang="bash">mv vortrac_tutorial.tar.gz ~/vortrac_example </code>

* Extract contents
<code lang="bash">tar -zxvf vortrac_tutorial.tar.gz </code>

You'll end up with a directory that includes the gridded radar data, a center file (.csv) and the XML file to run VORTRAC.

<ol start="3" style="list-style-type: decimal;">
<li>Create the following folders under the same directory as the XML file, center file, and the folder of '''radar''' </li></ol>

<code lang="bash">mkdir cappi </code>

<code lang="bash">mkdir center </code>

<code lang="bash">mkdir choosecenter </code>

<code lang="bash">mkdir pressure </code>

<code lang="bash">mkdir vtd </code>

You'll end up with a directory that includes 6 folders, a XML file and a center (.csv) file.
