 description=Toolkit for pre- and post-processing, visualizing, and running simulations in WRF
 about=GIS4WRF is an evolving cross-platform and open-source QGIS Python plug-in for the Advanced Research WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) modelling framework. It enables users to carry out several geo-related tasks (e.g. re-/mapping land surface data), define model domains, configure model parameters, run simulations, and visualize and post-process model output files within a single graphical user interface in QGIS.
