Description:Ordinarily, the TDL coastal wind forecasts are presented as alphanumeric messages (cccMRPCWx, etc.). The AFOS user must rely on coded letters and numbers to visualize a pictorial display of the given information in his/her mind. Unless used daily, the locations of the forecast points and their coded names, could become confused and/or forgotten by the user. As this continues, the effectiveness of the coastal wind forecasts diminishes. This program is designed to transform the alphanumeric data given in the forecasts into four plotfiles which can be displayed on the Graphics Display Module via PMOD. This program is the first step towards alleviating the task of memorizing locations on the part of the user.
