A pure pythonic reader for BUFR, the meteorological "Binary Universal Format for data Representation"

Download TDCF table archive:
- zip-files (bufrtables_*) in this project.
- eg. from ECMWF eccodes.
- DWD's public FTP server for GDS.
- Or other sources.
If files operator.table
and/or datacat.table
are not present in the table directory,
there are standard ones in this project's root. These files are not required for
decoding, but optional for readable output.
Either set environment variable $BUFR_TABLES
to the base directory, where the table
archives were extracted into, or provide this path to the Bufr constructor,
resp. at command-line.
Command-line interface, reads BUFR (with abbreviated heading line, if present) from file(s) and writes human-readable to stdout.
- Script for table download/update
- Implement the remaining obscure operators
