Description

This PR enables to read and process the input IMS snow cover data in either ascii or netCDF format.

Resolves NOAA-EMC/GDASApp#2022

Type of change

  • New feature (adds functionality)

Change characteristics

  • Is this change expected to change outputs (e.g. value changes to existing outputs, new files stored in COM, files removed from COM, filename changes, additions/subtractions to archives)? NO
  • Is this a breaking change (a change in existing functionality)? NO
  • Does this change require a documentation update? NO
  • Does this change require an update to any of the following submodules? YES

How has this been tested?

I conducted cycled experiments with DO_JEDISNOWDA=YES. These runs also require IMS snow cover observations in netCDF format.

  • Cycled test on Ursa

# Description

The current C++ IMS preprocessing code supports only ASCII-format input
files. This PR adds support for netCDF input files to meet the
requirements of reanalysis projects.

@jiaruidong2017 : The PR updates the GDASApp hash to gdas.cd @ e563476. This is fine, but since this hash is after GDASApp develop at 89e4101, we need to update sorc/link_workflow.sh in jiaruidong2017:feature/ims_nc. The change is simple. Just remove the line

 cp -f "${HOMEgfs}/sorc/gdas.cd/install/bin/calcfIMS.exe" ./gdas_calcfIMS.x

from link_workflow.sh. Failure to update link_workflow.sh will cause link_workflow.sh to abort prematurely and g-w CI will fail.

See g-w issue #4398 for details.
