RadxEvad reads in Doppler data from a polar radar file, computes volumetric VAD (VVP) winds and writes them out to NetCDF.

Running RadxEvad

To check all command line options for RadxEvad, including debugging options and file paths, the typical '-h' flag can be invoked:

/path/to/lrose/install/bin/RadxEvad -h

Likewise, to obtain the default parameter file, use the following command:

/path/to/lrose/install/bin/RadxEvad -print_params > RadxEvad.params

Use the following command to convert using the settings provided by the parameter file:

/path/to/lrose/install/bin/RadxEvad -f <path/to/data/file_name> -params $PWD/RadxEvad.params
