Composite NOGAPS/GFS/UKMET/ECMWF Forecast Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/209.006

Summary
This data set contains composite forecast imagery from the NRL NOGAPS, NCEP
GFS, UKMet and ECMWF models over the Western Pacific Ocean. Three products are
included in this data set: divergence and 200 mb streamlines; sea level
pressure and 500 mb heights; and vorticity and 850mb streamlines. The imagery
were produced from the 00 and 12 UTC model runs every six hours out to 36
hours and every twelve hours from 36-144 hours. These images were developed by
NRL and are in gif format.
