Description:

"At the beginning of the numerical weather prediction era, initial conditions for the early numerical predictions were obtained from manually analyzed meteorological charts. Values of the analyzed parameters were laboriously interpolated to the intersections of the grid point lattice upon which the finite-difference model equations were to be solved, and then manually entered on punched cards. It was quickly evident that automation of this process would be essential if operational numerical weather prediction was to be successful"--Introduction.
