1 Introduction

FM-94 BUFR (Binary Universal Form for data Representation) has been designed to achieve efﬁcient exchange

and storage of meteorological and oceanographic data. It is self deﬁning, table driven and very ﬂexible data

representation system, especially for huge volumes of data.

The User’s Guide is described in six sections.

Section 2 describes Bufr format in general, and it is useful for those who are not familiar with the Bufr concept.

Section 3 explains Bufr software usage. It contains FORTRAN subroutines for expanding and packing Bufr

data. A number of routines described shall be used as a tools.

A quality control representation in the Bufr is given in section 4.

Section 5 contains few example programs to decode/repack bufr data, create a new bufr message and expand

data descriptors only.

Useful WMO example templates are given in the section 6.

BUFR User’s Guide

2 BUFR format

A full deﬁnition of the BUFR form is given in WMO Manual on Codes, Volume I, International Codes,

Part B-Binary Codes, WMO-No.306, FM 94-IX Ext. BUFR. This section offers a brief description of the

basic structure and representation of the BUFR code.

The BUFR form is a binary representation of meteorological data. It is a continuous bit stream made up of a

sequence of octets (one octet is eight bits). The only part of BUFR where information does not end on byte

boundaries is the data section, where a length of BUFR table B elements can have any number of bits (although

it must not exceed the number of bits in a computer word for non-character data).

A BUFR message consists of six sections, some of which may be completely optional (section 2) or partially

optional (section 1).

The representation of data in the form of a series of bits is independent of any particular machine representation.

It is important to stress that the BUFR representation is not suitable for data visualisation without computer

interpretation.

The data section consists of one or more data subsets of related meteorological data which are deﬁned, de-

scribed and represented by a single Bufr table D entry. For observational data, one subset corresponds to one

observation. The data section can be in compressed or uncompressed form.

Each section included in the message always contain an even number of octets. If necessary, sections must be

appended with bits set to zero to fulﬁl this requirement.

A BUFR message is comprised of the following sections:

•Indicator section

•Identiﬁcation section

•Optional section

•Data description section

•Data section

•End section

2.1 Indicator section

Indicator section or Section 0 of a Bufr message has a ﬁxed length of eight octets. Information about the total

size of the BUFR message in octets 5-7 is very useful for reading BUFR data from pure binary ﬁles. The

content of Section 0 is given in the Table 1.

2.2 Identiﬁcation section

This section contains information relevant to data recognition without performing complete expansion of data.

Data type and observation date and time are the most important parts of it. In the case of multi-subset data

the time of the earliest observation should be packed into section 1. This section also contains all information

necessary do deﬁne the Bufr tables used.

2.4 Data description section

This section describes the data in the data section. The information which can be found in the ﬁrst seven octets

is the number of subsets in the message, their form and the type of data (observation/non-observation). The

data descriptors start in the 8th octet of the section 3. Each descriptor is spread over two bytes and contains

three parts. If F =0, the descriptor is an element descriptor and values of X and Y deﬁne entries in Bufr Table

Table 4: Descriptor reference

F X Y

2 bits 6 bits 8 bits

B. For F =1, the descriptor is a replication descriptor. If F =2, the descriptor is one of the operators from bufr

Table C. F =3 means that the descriptor represents the sequence descriptor from Bufr Table D. The table D

entries contain a list of element descriptors, operators, and/or other sequence descriptors.

In an ideal situation, data in Section 4 should be described by one Bufr Table D entry only.

X stands for class of elements in the range from 0-63 and Y is an entry within class 0-255. Classes 48-63 are

reserved for local use and entries from 192-255 within all classes are also reserved for local usage.

3 BUFR software

The ﬁrst version of ECMWF Bufr software was designed and implemented in 1987. A great deal of experience

has been gathered in handling binary coded observations since. Bufr software is written in FORTRAN 77.

Versions for C90, VAX, IBM, SGi , SUN, HP and for all UNIX and LINUX based platforms are available. It

has been installed on Mac OSX as well.

3.1 Bufr tables

BUFR is a table driven system. It uses three main tables.

•Bufr Table B - classiﬁcation elements

•Bufr Table C - text and meaning of all code/ﬂag tables

•Bufr Table D - list of common sequences

Bufr Tables B and D are used to collect all necessary information to pack/unpack Bufr data. Which table is to

be loaded is decided at runtime using information from Section 1 of the Bufr message. The naming convention

for Bufr binary tables is as follows:

Bssswwwwwxxxxxyyyzzz.TXT Cssswwwwwxxxxxyyyzzz.TXT Dssswwwwwxxxxxyyyzzz.TXT where

•sss - Master table number (zero for WMO meteorological tables)

•wwwww - Originating sub-centre

•xxxxx - Originating centre

•yyy - Version number of master table used

•zzz - Version number of local table used

ECMWF is currently using B0000000000098013001.TXT, C0000000000098013001.TXT and D0000000000098013001.TXT

tables. Keep in mind that Bufr Table C in this software is a code table. Bufr has Table C in its deﬁnition, where

Bufr Operators are deﬁned. If standard WMO tables are used, the Originating centre xxxxx will be set to

00000 .

Current version of the software will keep in memory up to JTMAX=10 versions of tables in the round robin

fashion.

3.2 Defaults

Integer missing value indicator:

8 ECMWF Technical Notes

3.2 Defaults

NVIND = 2147483647

Real missing value indicator:

RVIND = 1.7E38

Default path for Bufr Tables is hard coded in the software. To change the path set environmental variable

BUFR TABLES :

export BUFR TABLES=/.../

The path must end with ”/”

During decoding Bufr table path and the names are printed. If user doeas not want that, set: VARIABLE

PRINT TABLE NAMES=false

export PRINT TABLE NAMES=false

8 Total Bufr message length in bytes

9 Dimension of KSEC0 array

Method

A Bufr message passed as an argument to this routine is decoded section by section. Before Section 3 ex-

pansion Bufr tables are loaded using KSEC1 information to create table names. The loaded Bufr tables are

kept in memory and swapped only if the next message is requesting different tables.

Section 3 Data descriptors are unpacked and expanded applying all necessary operators in force and creating a

list of Bufr Table B elements which correspond one to one to the data in the Data section of the Bufr message.

Word and bit pointers are calculated for each element in the message.

Having all this information, unpacking of the data is performed applying reference value and scaling to get the

ﬁnal value for one element in the Bufr message. Unpacked data are stored in VALUES array. The correspond-

ing element names and units are stored in the CNAMES and CUNITS arrays respectively.

To achieve efﬁciency, original Data descriptors are saved for the following comparison. If the Data descriptors

for the next observation are not different from the previous, the former word and bit pointers to the elements

are used saving time for data descriptors expansion.

12 ECMWF Technical Notes

3.3 Decoding and encoding

If a Bufr Table B element is type character, the corresponding VALUES element contains a real number which,

when truncated to an integer represents

index * 1000 + length

where:

•index - subscript of the element in CVALS where character string is stored.

•length - number of characters represented.

In the case of multi subset data, the one dimensional array VALUES contains all subsets of data. The formula

to ﬁnd the index to the VALUES array of the i-th element of observation is:

index=i + (nsub-1)*KELEM

so start of next subset is KELEM apart.

Current version of the Bufr software can handle KELEM up to 160000 and KVALS up to 4096000.

Output arguments

•KBUFL - An INTEGER variable containing the length of the Bufr message in words.

Method

A basic approach when this software was designed to have a one to one correspondence between expanded

data descriptors and the data itself.

The input arguments have to be ﬁlled in before packing,. The lengths of the Sections and the total Bufr

message length are set by the software. The lengths of the Section 1 and 2 must be supplied by the user. The

other Section lengths ought to be set to zero. The default size of the Section 1 is 18 octets and 22 octets for

Bufr Edition 4, if there are no local entries. The Section 2 is optional section, and ECMWF uses it to store

Report Data Base key. In this case the length of the Section 2 is 52 octets.

Before setting values in the VALUES array, it is recommended to initialise it with the MISSING value indicator.

The Optional Section 2 and a local part of Section 1 must be in the packed form because encoder packs these

information in byte by byte manner.

The Data descriptors stored in the KTDLST array are expanded taking delayed replication factor values from

KDATA array if needed. The order of replication factor values must be as they appear in the data. If 203YYY

change reference value operator is used a reference value shall be in KDATA array.

The VALUES array must be ﬁlled in correspondence with previously described data elements. In the case of

multi subsets, the pointer of the ith element in VALUES array is:

index=i +(nsub-1)*KELEM

which implies that the ﬁrst element of the second subset begins at KELEM+1 position even if the number of

elements in the observation is less then KELEM.

For character information or elements having CCITT IA No.5 as units, VALUES array element contains a real

number which, when truncated to an integer represents

16 ECMWF Technical Notes

3.3 Decoding and encoding

value=isub*1000+length

where isub is a subscript of the element in CVALS array, where the character string is stored and the length

represents number of bytes/character occupied by this element.

To ﬁnd out what one observation should look like, the BUXDES routine can be used. This routine expands

data descriptors for the user. The procedure to print an expanded list of the data descriptors is the same as to

print Section 3 of Bufr message.

3.4 Error codes

The errors returned by the Bufr decoding/encoding routines can be zero, negative and positive. The zero

returned error code means no errors detected, negative error is a warning error which can occur during packing.

If the value to be packed is too big, BUFREN will pack the truncated value and return a negative error code.

The hard errors are positive.

The Error codes are given in Table 8.

3.5 Partial expansion

It is possible to expand only the requested subset of elements without unpacking the whole Bufr message. This

method is called partial expansion.

To do partial expansion, the request has to be set by calling the BUSRQ routine before calling BUFREX.

3.5.1 Subroutine BUSRQ

Purpose

Sets ﬂags and Bufr table B reference numbers of the requested elements for partial expansion.

Interface

CALL BUSRQ(KREQ,KRQL,KRQ,RQV,KERR)

where:

•Integer variable are denoted by ﬁrst letter K.

•Real variables are denoted by ﬁrst letter R.

Input arguments

•KREQ - An INTEGER array of 2 containing ﬂags.

•KRQL - An INTEGER containing the number of requested elements

•KRQ - An INTEGER array containing the list of requested elements (Bufr table B reference numbers)

•RQV - A REAL*8 array of KRQL containing a list of values signifying requested elements

Output arguments

•KERR - Error code

Method

The lists of ﬂags and Bufr Table B reference numbers are used to designate requested Bufr elements. The

elements from class 7 and 8 are possible qualiﬁers for the other elements if supplied with corresponding

values.

The partial expansion is not supported for the whole analysis feedback Bufr messages ( includes original

observation and analysis variables followed by the statistics e.t.c.)

The list of the requested elements and corresponding word and bit pointers are created before expansion. These

pointers are used to extract data from the Data section of the Bufr message.

The KRQ and RQV arrays have to be initialised by missing value indicators NVIND and RVIND respectively.

The KREQ(1) is useful to split the feedback Bufr message into original, quality control and analysis feed back

data.

3.6 Printing routines

Bufr form is a binary representation of meteorological data and as such is not suitable for visualization. After

expanding Bufr data using the BUFREX routine a number of printing routines can be used to print different

parts of the Bufr message.

3.6.1 To print Section 0

CALL BUPRS0(KSEC0)

3.6.2 To print Section 1

CALL BUPRS1(KSEC1)

3.6.3 To print Section 2

Section 2 of the Bufr message is an optional section and every ADP centre can pack any information in this

section. The Bufr software decodes this local information and stores it into KSEC2 array. ECMWF is storing

RDB key in the Section 2 of the Bufr messages. To print content of the Section 2, subroutine BUUKEY must

be called before the BUPRS2 routine.

For other cases, special routines have to be written to unpack this information.

CALL BUUKEY(KSEC1,KSEC2,KEY,KSUP,KERR)

CALL BUPRS2(KSUP,KEY)

where

•KEY - An INTEGER array containing RDB key information

•The other arguments were described in previous routines.

3.6.4 To print Section 3

Prior to calling the BUPRS3 routine, the BUSEL or BUSEL2 routine has to be called to get lists of unexpanded

and fully expanded Data descriptors. In the case of multi-subset uncompressed bufr data the expanded list of

descriptors might be different for different subsets.

CALL BUSEL(KTDLEN,KTDLST,KTDEXL,KTDEXP,KERR)

CALL BUSEL2(KSUBSET,KELEM,KTDLEN,KTDLST,KTDEXL,KTDEXP,CNAMES,CUNITS,KERR)

CALL BUPRS3(KSEC3,KTDLEN,KTDLST,KTDEXL,KTDEXP,KELEM,CNAMES)

3.6.5 To print data

CALL BUPRT(K,KSUB1,KSUB2,KELEM,CNAMES,CUNITS,CVALS,

KVALS,VALUES,KSUP,KSEC1,KERR)

where

•K - An INTEGER set to 0 - No Code table entry

1 - Code table entry

•KSUB1 - An INTEGER containing the starting subset to print.

•KSUB2 - An INTEGER containing the ending subset to print.

•KELEM - An INTEGER containing the expected number of expanded elements.

•CNAMES - A CHARACTER*64 array containing the element names.

•CUNITS - A CHARACTER*24 array containing the units.

•CVALS -A CHARACTER*80 array containing character values.

•KVALS -An INTEGER containing the expected number of data values.

•VALUES - A REAL*8 array containing the expanded values.

3.7.7 Subroutine BUXDES

Purpose

A basic principle in encoding Bufr data is to have a one to one correspondence between data descriptors and

the values to be packed.

This routine is a tool to achieve this requirement. It expands Data descriptors and prints unexpanded and

expanded lists. The Unexpanded list should be part of Section 3 of the Bufr message and the VALUES array

3.7.8 Subroutine BUBOX

Purpose

The expanded Bufr message can be very lengthy containing many bit maps referring backwards to the data.

This routine resolves bit maps for the user, returning two dimensional arrays containing the expanded obser-

vation and the corresponding applications (quality controls, statistics, differences e.t.c).

Every application appears as a new column. A new data are following each other in the ﬁrst column, starting

with the generating centre/application information.

•Integer variables are denoted by ﬁrst letter K.

•Real variable are denoted by ﬁrst letter V.

•Character variables are denoted by ﬁrst letter C.

Input arguments

•KSUB - An INTEGER containing subset number.

•KSUP - An INTEGER array size 9 containing supplementary information.

•KELEM - An INTEGER variable containing expected number of expanded. elements. It must be the

same as used in BUFREX routine previously called.

•KWTR - An INTEGER array containing list of expanded Bufr table B reference numbers (KTDEXP

output from BUSEL routine).

•CNAMES - A CHARACTER*64 array of KELEM words containing element names.

•CUNITS - A CHARACTER*24 array of KELEM words containing element units.

•KVALS - An INTEGER variable containing expected number of data values.

•VALUES - A REAL*8 array of KVALS words containing element values.

Output arguments

•KBOX - An INTEGER containing number of elements in ﬁrst column of box.

•KAPP - An INTEGER containing number of applications

•KLEN - An INTEGER containing max index for number of rows. The next column starts at KLEN +1

element or index=i + (KAPP - 1)*KLEN to address any value in the box.

•KBOXR - An INTEGER array of 80000 containing Bufr table B reference numbers.

•VALS - A REAL*8 array of 80000 containing boxed values.

•CBOXN - A CHARACTER*64 array of 80000 containing boxed element names.

•CBOXU - A CHARACTER*24 array of 80000 containing boxed units.

•KERR - An INTEGER containing error code

Method

The expanded Bufr message is passed in the subroutine to resolve backward reference bit maps associating

all applications to the particular element. The output arrays containing boxed data are one dimensional arrays

containing information as two dimensional table.

The ﬁrst column contains in ﬁrst 6 rows reserved information and the original observation starts at the index

7. Columns 2- KAPP are different generating applications corresponding through bit maps to the data in the

column 1. Column 1 contains KLEN elements. Index to the i-th element can be calculated as:

index = i + (KAPP-1) * KLEN

The ﬁrst raw, columns 2 to KAPP contain quality control operators (222000, 225000 e.t.c) Rows 2 to 6,

columns 2 to KAPP contain generating centre, generating application, statistics, incremental update number

and minimisation simulation number respectively.

3.8 Performance

The speed to decode Bufr messages is proportional to the number of messages. Since the same number of the

same kind of observations can be packed into Bufr form in many ways, it is recommended to use multi subsets

in compressed form when- ever possible. To get the best performance from the software it is recommended

that:

•The input ﬁle for expansion should contain Bufr messages sorted according to their types.

•Avoid usage of delayed data descriptor replication factors if possible.

•Avoid usage of Operator 203yyy to change reference values.

•Encode data into Bufr form in multi subset compressed form.

Here are some ﬁgures of real times used on IBM RS600, single processor computer to expand:

•All conventional data for one analysis cycle (56945 Bufr messages, 197696 subsets) 18 seconds.

•All AIRS data for one analysis cycle (70 Mbytes, 7775 bufr messages with 80563 subsets) 122 seconds.

2 22 000 Quality informa-

tion

The Class 33 quality information which follows relates

to the following N fully expanded (including all repli-

cations) data descriptors; this operator shall be followed

by a replication operator and the data present indicator

(031031); the replication factor shall deﬁne N, while the

bit map deﬁned within the data by the replicated 031031

descriptor shall indicate those elements for which quality

control information is given.

2 23 000 Substituted values

operator

The substituted values which follow relate to the previous

N fully expanded (including all replications) data descrip-

tors; this operator shall be followed by a replication oper-

ator and the data present indicator (031031); the replica-

tion factor shall deﬁne N, while the bit map deﬁned within

the data by the replicated 031031descriptor shall indicate

those elements for which substituted values are given

2 23 255 Substituted value

marker operator

This operator shall indicate the relative position of the

data element in the data stream where the descriptor(s)

indicated as relevant by the 031031 descriptor shall have

effect. This device allows for additional descriptors (and

data) to be placed after the 031031 descriptor (and its as-

sociated bit map in the data) without losing the correspon-

dence between the original descriptors and the substituted

values.

2 24 000 First order statisti-

cal values follow

The statistical values which follow relate to the previous

N fully expanded (including all replications) data descrip-

tors; this operator shall be followed by a replication oper-

ator and the data present indicator (031031); the repli-

cation factor shall deﬁne N, while the bit map deﬁned

within the data described by the replicated 031031 de-

scriptor shall indicate those elements for which statisti-

cal values are given; each statistical value shall be repre-

sented in the data according to the scheme described by

the corresponding data descriptor, as possibly modiﬁed

by any operator having scope over that descriptor when

ﬁrst used.

The statistical values which follow relate to the previous

N fully expanded (including all replications) data descrip-

tors; this operator shall be followed by a replication oper-

ator and the data present indicator (031031); the replica-

tion factor shall deﬁne N, while the bit map deﬁned within

the data by the replicated 031031 descriptor shall indicate

those elements for which statistical values are given; each

statistical value shall be represented in the data accord-

ing to the scheme described by the correspond- ing data

descriptor, as possibly modiﬁed by any operator having

scope over that descriptor when ﬁrst used, but with a ref-

erence value of -2n and data width of (n+1), where n is the

data width given by the original descriptor. This special

reference value allows the statistical difference values to

be centred around zero.

2 25 255 Difference statisti-

cal values marker

operator

This operator shall indicate the relative position of the

data element in the data stream where the descriptor(s)

indicated as relevant by the 031031 operator shall have

5.1 To unpack and print data

This program is an interactive version to expand Bufr data. It can decode and encode unpacked data as a single

or multi-subset Bufr messages. It calls BUBOX and BUPRTBOX routines to resolve the bit map.

The outputs of the expanded AIREP data using Bufr print routines and BUPRTBOX are attached.
