# CSPP Geo Gridded GLM
USAGE
CSPP Geo Gridded GLM takes GOES GLM Level 2 LCFA files and grids them to the ABI
fixed grid. It does this using the open source glmtools python package by Eric Bruning.
The following scripts are located in the `bin/` directory.
More information can be found at:
cspp-geo-gglm-trio-picker.sh
https://github.com/deeplycloudy/glmtools
A simple wrapper around cspp-geo-gglm-minute-gridder.sh that takes a single input file and:
1) determines if it is the last file in a minute
2) if so, finds all files from that minute and passes them to cspp-geo-gglm-minute-gridder.sh
3) creates both grids and tiles for that minute
And the methods are described in Bruning et al. (2019):

This script creates one minute grids from any number of input files.
## USAGE
cspp-geo-gglm.sh
This script creates one minute grids from three GLM L2+ LCFA input files. It also has a "realtime"
option where, provided a single input file, it will determine if an entire minute is available and
begin gridding if appropriate.
cspp-geo-gglm-make-grids.sh
A wrapper for the `make_GLM_grids.py` "kitchen sink" example script provided by glmtools.

This is a wrapper for the `make_GLM_grids.py` example utility provided by glmtools. Users may
find this script useful for creating grids with custom resolutions or frame durations.
